This weekend in Morris County, NJ

At the Lincoln Park P.A.L. Community Center, volunteers of all ages come together for a hands-on meal packaging effort that supports local hunger-relief programs serving individuals and families. The goal is to assemble 30,000 nutritious meals. The work starts with setup as participants label about 17,000 bags and add cheese packets to prepare for the line. Teams then move through simple, step-by-step stations to measure ingredients, fill bags, and heat seal rice and bean meals, with on-site guidance so no prior experience is needed. After packing wraps up, participants help take down stations and clean the space. Opportunities are open to all ages and abilities, and each role contributes to turning a few hours of service into thousands of meals for the community.

Honoring 40 years of community service, this celebration features brunch, a performance, storytelling, and appearances by special guests. It offers a chance to reflect on ARFC’s journey so far and to look ahead to the next forty years with friends and supporters.

River City is thrown into a whirlwind when a slick-talking salesman arrives with a plan to sell instruments and uniforms for a boys' band he promises to create, even though he cannot tell a trombone and a treble clef apart. As Harold Hill charms the townspeople, he crosses paths with Marian the librarian, and their growing connection upends his scheme to run off with the money, steering him toward honesty by the final curtain. Meredith Willson’s musical comedy, a six-time Tony Award winner, blends broad laughs, romance, and classic numbers including Seventy-Six Trombones, Trouble, Til There Was You, Pickalittle, and Gary, Indiana. This is a warm, family-friendly story that invites multiple generations to share in the fun.
