Hello Readers, I hope that everyone had a fun filled and outstanding month of October! The team of your community magazine surely did, having celebrated our one-year anniversary of Little Silver Neighbors. It was a privilege to have been able to publish that issue. I can confidently say that the best is yet to come! One year was a milestone, and we are dedicated to the continued growth of this magazine to connect everyone in Little Silver even more with each issue. Which leads me to my next item—to wish everyone in town a very heartfelt and Happy Thanksgiving this November. I am thankful for all of you, our readers and residents. There is always something new to learn from each and every one of you, and that is one of the best parts of creating this magazine. Your passion for making this town the best it can be is humbling and I am thankful to be able to share your stories and passions with your neighbors each month. November 2018 has a lot in store for us, firstly with a family that is newer to town and that I hope you all have a chance to meet, the Fee Carlsons! This issue be sure to read the excellent nutrition article and recipe that Tammi has written/shared with us—a big thank you to Tammi from the LSN team! Also in this edition: we have another animal looking to find a home in our pet corner, a great article on the Kortney Rose Foundation, and much more! So for this month when we go around the table I will have more than a few things to be thankful for: this amazing community that is Little Silver, the outstanding business sponsors that make this publication possible, Avery Brighton of Shine Bright Studios for her beautiful photography, Allison Merchant our amazing Content Coordinator who fills our pages with stories, my family and friends, and my Amanda.

FEE CARLSON

FAMILY

Delicious Smiles and Fruitful Laughter

unlight slipped through a net of goldening leaves, speckling a quiet road that leads to Parkers Creek that connects with the Shrewsbury River. In the soft dew of the morning, Tammi Fee Carlson and Adeline Joy Carlson often stroll together, guided by the lines of sycamore trees along Alwin Terrace. Adeline in a stroller, Tammi on foot, the pair quickly finding solace and ease in their new home. July 8, 2017 Tammi Fee and Troy Carlson exchanged vows at their home with friends and family. “Our house has a horseshoe yard and great flowering shrubs and trees so it went perfectly with a beautiful wedding on a private road with an alignment of grand sycamore trees,” Tammi said. Shortly after, Adeline joined the two and the trio are a happy addition to the Little Silver community. After emigrating from New York City, the Fee Carlsons decided Monmouth County was the place they wanted to raise their family. Little Silver provided the perfect place for them to be close to work and family with Troy’s position at FIG Partners located in the Red Bank office. “I would say that as a new family with a newborn, we are looking forward to getting involved in the activities, especially as Adeline

becomes school age,” Troy said. “I’m looking forward to being more involved in the community and family events. Working very close to home is great and fantastic. Little Silver has all the elements we were looking for when we were leaving the city

and we’re very happy and are looking forward to being here for a long time.” Despite just a couple years in town, the Fee Carlsons felt right at home with their neighbors. They became instant New friends and many were guests at their wedding and baby shower. Currently the two enjoy most spending time at home with their daughter and finding a moment for quiet conversation or a delicious

dinner. Tammi holds a Bachelor’s in Science in exercise science and nutrition and owns a nutrition business. “I am a health freak,” Tammi joked. “My husband has to follow along with my healthy living because I don’t cook differently for him and I won’t buy an oreo.” This healthy lifestyle influences her other passions like environmentalism. She invented a reusable drinking straw called TFeestm when the inspiration struck her back in 2010. The product is made from Tritantm plastic, a material that is estrogenic and androgenic free. It is heat-safe, does not melt or bleach, and goes beyond boiling to make it ideal for sanitizing. The design is to fit all ages and for all beverages hot or cold. Tammi elaborated that her thought process for inventing the straw was originally a personal dilemma. “I am that balance between vanity and nature,” Tammi admitted. “I believe in keeping things beautiful but in the most natural way. So, I bleached my teeth and wanted to keep them white and I also wanted to enjoy my organic French press cup of coffee in the winter and could not because you can’t use a regular straw.” continued on page 6

She explained that using glass straws could damage your teeth while stainless steel is hard to ensure that it is cleaned properly. This prompted her research into different plastics that would be safe environmentally and sanitarily. Thus, the invention of TFeestm. Troy supported Tammi’s vision and became an equal advocate from environmental awareness. “[TFeestm] show a lot about Tammi and where we’re thinking in terms of the environment and being forward thinking to save Mother Earth,” Troy said. ”It’s all the hip and trendy craze now but we started this thing in 2010.” Troy and Tammi participate in many campaigns to clean and conserve the ocean like Give a Sip, that prohibit disposable straws. “We are out there doing what we can for the oceans and to make this place more sustainable for the next generation.” Family is a strong motivation for the Fee Carlson family and their day-to-day endeavors. “We’re extremely family oriented and committed to our family,” Tammi said. “We are very far from perfect, but we have a strong belief in family roots and family morals. We are both very spiritual. Troy and I are very much alike and very much opposite. We balance each other well and our daughter balances us both. She’s just amazing.”

MARTY RYSER A Pillar in the Community

By Allison Merchant

O Adeline has quickly become the center of their world and influences a new Fee Carlson family motto: Don’t do anything you would not want your daughter to know about. Tammi finds a certain peace when the two take their walks down Alwin Terrace. Time and again the sycamore trees act as a quilted blanket, an encompassing patchwork of serene nature that gives you a gentle hug. “We love our block,” Tammi said. “It has a majestic feel with its huge old trees, the water and the people make it all magical.”

verlooking Little Silver Borough Hall in Borough Field is the legacy of George Butch Ryser. The Butch Ryser Memorial Patio provides a newer landmark to the town and pays respect to the late George Butch Ryser. However, his legacy extends further and is more prominent with the designer and builder of the patio, his son Marty Ryser. Marty Ryser has been a staple to the town of Little Silver in more ways than one. His well-known landscape supply store, Ryser’s Landscape Supply, opened in 1993. “He had no experience running any type of company,” said John Venino, friend of Ryser. “With the help of his wife Carol, he has built the premier landscape supply business in the area.” The contribution of the company to the community reflects the character of Ryser. ““I can’t think of an organization that hasn’t been supported by him,” said Doug Glassmacher, director of the Little Silver Recreation Department. “He’s helped Boy Scouts achieve projects by providing material. He’s helped all of our first responders in town like the fire department and EMS. He is a loyal supporter of our police department and has been named by them as a lifetime member of the Police Benevolent Association.”

November 2018

One of his major attributions is the Little Silver National Night Out, the annual community-building campaign with the Police Department that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie. “He donates his time, money and man power to Little Silver National Night Out via the supply of numerous vehicles and giveaways,” Venino explained. In addition, Ryser runs a touch-a-truck day in the fall that is visited by hundreds of citizens. “He will pull over while driving and give free advice and expertise, if he sees you doing yard work,” Venino said. Ryser continues to affect the community with his kindness and dedication to the town he has called home for so long. “He is a very generous person, he does it because of his pure love for the community and because it’s the right thing to do,” Glassmacher said. Glassmacher emphasized the need for people to know the pillars of the town, the individuals who constantly support Little Silver, because these individuals need to be supported as well. “He does this all without ever seeking publicity or recognition,” Glassmacher said. “He has supported so many groups disquietly. He does it because he loves Little Silver and it’s his hometown. His family has generations of roots here and they’ll be here for more generations as his son is now involved in the family business as well.”

undreds of years ago, long before the Borough of Little Silver existed there was a community of families enjoying their lives on this very same area of earth where we live today. On Rumson Road is a Little Silver treasure called The Parker Homestead that tells that history of our predecessors and what it was like here hundreds of years ago. Peter and Joseph Parker were brothers that came to this area in the 1600’s. They were very involved leaders in the community. Both men served their community while clearing land, building, and providing for their own families. The historic home and barns that we see today were improved by each generation of Parkers and remained in the Parker family until 1995 when the last owner, Julia Parker, passed away gifting it to the Borough of Little Silver.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24TH

In subsequent years, The Parker Homestead – 1665 Inc. non-for-profit 501c3 foundation was created to preserve the unique 330-year history of the Parker family through the restoration and maintenance of the Homestead lands and buildings and promote their use for educational, historical and cultural exhibits and events dedicated to enriching and increasing the knowledge and appreciation of local heritage in collaboration with the Borough of Little Silver. The Parker Homestead is one of the oldest structures in New Jersey and one of the oldest in the United States. The Parker Homestead – 1665 is on the National Register of Historic Places and New Jersey State Registry. Volunteers have worked tirelessly for many years to catalog the contents of the house and barns. Much of the home and barns have been restored and are regularly open for public

Personal favorites of mine have been the annual Vintage Baseball Game, Antique Car Show and Cub Scout Sleepover which all help to teach the current Little Silver community about its history. I encourage you to learn more about this Parker Homestead heritage. Recently they hosted an exciting “Ramble at Parker” event on October 14th where local bands preformed on the Parker Homestead lawn for family entertainment and on October 19th community members partook in the “Party for Parker Homestead” where attendees enjoyed drinks, food and fun at six local homes to raise money for The Parker Homestead.

and much safer, especially if have younger riders. Stop at the top, the view is incredible. Follow the elevated sidewalk to the bike path along the ocean which leads to Sandy Hook. Sandy Hook’s Bike Trail is wonderfully paved to the very tip of North Beach. Make a stop on the bayside by the campsites. There you can poke around the ruins of a fort and the Arrowhead and Granger Batteries. Check out the lighthouse, which opened in 1754. They offer tours daily from 1pm to 4:30pm. (On a non-bike day: book the walks and events the park offers year-round. Some will educate, some will enlighten, and some will just plain old scare you. Try a night walk through the old battlements to shiver your timbers.) At the very tip of The Hook is a tower, park the bikes, mount the stairs and take in the view of New York. Be sure to visit The Historic House and Littoral Society if they are open. Leave yourself with enough time and power to jump on the Henry Hudson Trail after you explore Sandy Hook. When crossing the Highlands Bridge keep to the sidewalk of northbound 36, at the bottom of the hill again take Shore Drive but this time to the very end. There is a parking lot, a little beach (great for new kayakers and stand-up boards) and the beginning of the path. This is one of my favorite places to walk, ride, or paddle. The scenery changes with each shift of the seasons but it’s always spectacular.

You may only make it as far as the Atlantic Highlands Marina or you may have peddled and conserved energy. Go as far as you can, keeping a keen eye on your power supply. On the first trip with my family we did 31 miles. We were able to work in Hartshorne Woods. We started at the Rocky Point parking lot and took the paved path down to the dock. Some of us fared better than others. It’s not for the faint of heart on a regular bike and someone did eat dust. That same child ate dust in the same spot a decade ago on a scooter, just saying. The second time we went 21 miles. I took six, fifteen-year-old girls. Again, not for the faint of heart. This time it was not because of the bike but the teenagers. The third time I went— yes that’s right, three times in two weeks. I told you I like it. I took my older sister, who is not a fan of bikes, my niece, her husband and Jade. This was a good cross section of participants to gather opinions on the experience, which garnered a hearty thumbs up from all. All I can say is try it, you’ll like it. Until next time, and as always, stay safe and have fun. Billie is a resident of Little Silver and you might recognize her from one of our April 2018 issue Family Feature!

very once in a while, you find a new favorite thing, and last month my family found ours. I was casting about for something special to do before my son Jack went back to college. We are a pretty active family, but we do not all enjoy the same intensity level. A few months ago, we stopped into a local bike shop in Highlands. The proprietor introduced us to the electric bike. I was disdainful at first, then intrigued and in the end couldn’t wait to try it. These bikes are for anyone who wants to have fun. The shops owner is so enthusiastic you cannot help but to catch the fever. So off we go for our next adventure. These electric bikes come in various sizes and styles. They are made to assist while you peddle. You can coast along the entire two rental hours, but you will find yourself panicked about getting back to the shop at the end of your sojourn. The power button propels you from one-five. Two keeps you cooking at a nice speed and five has you racing past your fifteen-year-old, who has informed you, you’re too old for long hair. There is a boost button feature which pops you over the Highlands bridge—our first destination. From the bike shop take Shore Drive to the Highlands Bridge, follow the round about and head up the hill to southbound 36, use the wide sidewalk and not the bike lane. This is not crowded

s we welcomed fall and recently celebrated our sixth year in business I would like to share our recent experiences. Education is extremely important in the beauty industry. I always provide my staff with the chance to advance their craft. Over the summer, our nail technicians had the privilege to train with a representative from Dazzle Dry. Dazzle Dry is a vegan nail polish line with a dry time of five minutes. This is a four-part system that lasts 10-14 days. It is a healthy approach in nail care and what is better than putting on your socks, boots and shoes after only five minutes?! Next, we have been waiting quite a few months for the @PURE PIGMENTS launch with Goldwell color. Ten years in the making with Fujifilm, it is a direct dye additive to oxidative color. It produces the most fantastic illumination of 3D color and shine. Call us for your free color consultation and we can provide you with the most fashion forward color for the holidays. Also, be sure to check out our continued posts on Instagram, Facebook and our website to stay up to date on what’s happening at Salon Jenae. We wish everybody has a healthy and happy Thanksgiving!

The Kortney

Rose Foundation — Looking to the Future

By Allison Merchant

ovember 27, 2005 Kortney Rose Gillette celebrated her ninth birthday. She was a happy and healthy girl who would soon become the driving force of inspiration for the Kortney Rose Foundation. “Two weeks later she was a brain tumor patient with the deadliest kind of brain tumor a child can get and is fatal in every case,” said Kristen Gillette, Executive Director of Kortney Rose Foundation and Kortney’s mother. “Our world changed overnight, and we were thrown into the world of pediatric cancer that we knew nothing about.” Kortney received treatment at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and it was there that the Gillette family learned that the tumor in her brain stem was called Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). The doctors informed the family that no surgery could be performed

without endangering vital functions like breathing and heartrate. “The head of Neuro-Oncology at that time, Dr. Peter Phillips, told us some startling facts that over 30 years of research hasn’t brought about any effective treatments for this type of brain tumor,” Gillette said. “As a parent the last thing you want to hear when your child is diagnosed with cancer is that they can’t do anything but make the child comfortable in the time they have left. This didn’t sit well with me. Dr. Phillips continued to tell us that the Federal Government in the U.S. funds about 98% of all cancer research in this country and only 4% of the government’s annual research budget goes to support all forms of childhood cancer research. So that’s 96% to adult cancer research and only 4% to kids.” This startling imbalance inspired Gillette to act and fund meaningful research for pediatric brain tumors. In Kortney’s name and memory, their hometown Oceanport rallied around the family. “They held a dinner to raise money to help us pay for anything Kortney would need,” Gillette said. “Knowing Kortney’s fate and watching the support we received through this event, helped give me the confidence needed to start The Kortney Rose Foundation (KRF).”” Board Member and childhood friend Jennifer Chaladoff spoke about her participation with the foundation. “I have been involved in some way since the beginning,” Chaladoff said. “I remember sitting with Kristen on her porch shortly after Kortney’s death. She was already discussing ideas for the beginning stages for creating the foundation. I participated mostly in Kortney’s Challenge during the first years.”

Kortney’s Challenge is an annual 2 Mile Run/Walk inspired by Kortney’s 9 year old friends, at the time. Gillette considered in what ways children as well as adults could help the foundation and walking two miles was her solution. The first Challenge occurred before the foundation could legally be considered a non-profit, therefore the funds raised were donated to expand and improve the playground at Wolf Hill Elementary School, where Kortney was in third grade. It is now called Kortney’s Playground. The endurance of this foundation reflects the perseverance and passion Gillette and others pour into their efforts. Gillette continued to run the foundation while maintaining part-time jobs and a full-time position at Monmouth University as an office coordinator in the Political Science and Sociology Department from 2010-2017. “After 11 years of running the foundation on a part-time basis and several years of vacillating between closing the foundation to work full-time or vice versa, I decided that my true passion was working for the foundation. In June of 2017, I left Monmouth University to become the full time Executive Director of The Kortney Rose Foundation,” Gillette said. In the past decade, The Kortney Rose Foundation has reached its $1 million goal and is quickly approaching $2 million in funds raised to support collaborative research.

“What spoke to me most is how this small local foundation, with no staff at the time and only family and friends volunteering, had managed to accomplish so much,” said Ina Kichen, Board Member of The Kortney Rose Foundation, on what prompted her involvement. “Kristen’s relentless pursuit for a cure, her singular focus on research at the best children’s hospital in the country, was incredibly inspiring.” The growth of KRF has led to more board members, volunteers and designated committees to help run the multiple events hosted each year. Two committee chairs now work closely with Gillette to organize and implement the largest fundraisers for KRF, Kortney’s Challenge and Turning Point/ Great Food for a Great Cause. Gillette continues to push for more awareness of the cause rather than just raising funds. “After Kortney died I set up a meeting with Dr. Phillips to let him know I was forming The Kortney Rose Foundation and we wanted to fund brain tumor research,” Gillette said. “He was my wise counsel on the formation of our foundation from a research standpoint and remains so today as our newly minted Scientific Advisor of our Board’s Scientific Advisory Committee.” continued on page 16

In her early meetings with Dr. Phillips, Gillette questioned why hospitals didn’t collaborate research. “I was naïve and didn’t understand the need for researchers to hold their findings to get published to receive a higher salary, more notoriety for themselves and their institutions, as well as a better chance at future funding through the National Institute of Health (NIH),” Gillette admitted. But her stance was to advocate cures not credits and to possibly save lives within the broad timeframe it takes to get officially published. “At the end of the year in 2010 Dr. Phillips asked me to meet with him at CHOP,” Gillette said. “He proceeded to tell me that, ‘We are going to do what you wanted, we’re going to collaborate with other hospitals. We’re starting the Children’s Brain Tumor Tissue Consortium (CBTTC) which will have four major U.S. pediatric hospitals collaborating by sharing specimens and data from their findings.’ We immediately pledged all donations from 2011 forward to help create the CBTTC. The Kortney Rose Foundation was a primary research funder of the CBTTC. What began with four hospitals in the U.S. now involves 16 institutions around the world. This entity was entirely funded with philanthropic money and nothing from the federal government. To house this enormous amount of brain tumor specimen data and share it quickly, CHOP created the first ever pediatric cancer data cloud called CAVATICA.”[i] The data in the cloud doesn’t limited access to the 16 research institutions alone, but any researcher may access with the only mandate being that their findings from using the data must be shared back into CAVATICA for all to access and use.

“What started with the KRF’s funding to create a consortium for brain tumor specimens/data has grown beyond,” Gillette said. The approaching of 2019 provides an interesting time for KRF. With Gillette full time, the foundation will be implementing its first strategic plan. “We are excited to be funding a very exciting immunotherapy research project for pediatric brain tumors over the next couple of years in addition to other key research projects,” Gillette said. Boosts in income from signature events and sponsorships may increase the foundation’s impact even further. “In an ideal world, the foundation would cease to exist because a cure for pediatric brain cancer would be a reality and the legacy of the foundation would be that it was a driving force in making that happen,” Kichen said. To learn more or get involved with the foundation, please email Kristen@thekortneyrosefoundation. [i] This information is from the official press release about the launch of CAVATICA, a data analysis platform designed to facilitate the rapid integration of data from multiple diseases affecting children, including cancer and other rare diseases like congenital disorders, epilepsy, and autism. Birth defects and neurological disorders have been linked to an increased incidence of cancer, however, uncovering these connections has been slowed because data generated to understand pediatric cancer cannot be easily compared to data generated for research into other rare diseases. CAVATICA will immediately make available more than 24 datasets for collaborative discovery spanning pediatric cancer to congenital heart defects, and these datasets will be interoperable with the Genomic Data Commons and other NIH data repositories to drive progress in our understanding and treatment of childhood cancer.

2 Cups chicken broth

Bake on 350°f in oven for 1 hour, make sure to butter your baking casserole pan before heating so stuffing stays good and moist without sticking.

Use 1/2 cup of broth to reheat leftovers if you have any! If you want to make a healthier version, use 1 cup of a mix of walnuts and dried cranberries in place of the bacon and a sprouted part grain bread. You will need to sauté the mix in butter but can use olive oil as well. You’ll need the full 2 cups of broth to moisten. This recipe is simple and oh so delicious but no, not low in calories. Use organic wherever possible and a quality fresh bread. Trader Joe’s offers all of the ingredients organic and at an economical value.

Food for Thought

Fall into Healthy Eating and Harvest Favorites B y T amm i F e e C a r l s o n

e live in a blessed nation where we have fruitful farms and international trade to import any and all other foods. It makes it possible for us in NJ to eat papayas all year round if we like, but this is not always the best practice. Rule of nutritional thumb is to eat local, colorful and fresh. This practice ensures we are eating foods in season, at the peak of their nutrient density and lowest carbon footprint. It also gives us the “special stuff” to digest better and fight off the seasonal allergies and ailments of that time of year. When food needs to travel far it does take some time and preparation for their trip which unfortunately robs it of some of its nutrients. And then there is the time in the store and then in your fridge or freezer, leaving you with what I call “dead” food. Looks pretty and fresh but its nutrients have been purged over time outside of its calories. Eating with the season is easy and usually takes just a bit of education because most of us already eat seasonal foods. We all love in summer our local NJ tomatoes and basil, cool cucumbers (which are truly cooling to the body in warm temperatures) and sweet corn. I think everyone has become pumpkin obsessed in fall which is just such an amazing squash with tons of Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), Thiamin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Iron, Magnesium and Phosphorus, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Riboflavin, Potassium, Copper and Manganese. As a nutritionist, I’m thrilled when clients tell me they eat the pumpkin pulp and roast the seeds. They are so tasty and help to fight

As a degreed nutritionist and exercise specialist, as well as a certified health coach my health is equally as important to me as my enjoyment. I will not sacrifice one for the other and believe you should not have to either! I’m a mom and a corporate professional with two businesses of my own and a husband who works a gazillion hours. I get “I have no time to eat healthy, or workout.” I also understand the “I have to cook what my husband and kids will actually eat.” I hope my 25 years of nutrition professional and personal practice helps you! I have been educated and schooled in the nuances of nutrition which is a conflicting science and then confusion compounded by commercial fad diets and empty promises. It’s difficult for the experts to keep it all straight. “Eat carbs, don’t eat carbs, sugar is evil, fat is good, fat is bad, eat palm oil, don’t eat palm oil.” Ugh, it gives me a headache. Then the media tells you to eat cheeseburgers and fit in skinny jeans in a size 2! My goal is to help make it simple for you all to lead a healthy lifestyle enriched with healthy foods dense in rich nutrients and taste while staying fit to enjoy your time on this beautiful planet to the fullest.

Sweet potatoes

Spaghetti squash

Swiss chard

Cranberries

Butternut squash

Brussels sprouts

Persimmon

Spinach (also a spring food)

These above foods are all abundant to us here and common foods at our Thanksgiving tables. For a healthier 2018 fall just add them to your daily diet and try to have a food from every color on your meal plate for a natural phytochemical boost! Purple/Blue — Anthocyanin’s are antioxidants that are heart healthy and may help support healthy blood pressure.

Yellow and Green — These vegetables are excellent sources of vitamin K, folic acid, potassium, as well as carotenoids and omega-3 fatty acids. Folic acid is needed to prevent neural tube defects during pregnancy, and vitamin K is essential in blood clot formation. Diets high in potassium are associated with lowering blood pressure, and there is an inverse relationship between cruciferous vegetables and cancer, especially colon and bladder cancers.

Yellow/Green — These foods are a variation of the green color category and tend to have richness in lutein. Lutein is beneficial for eye health and can help protect against age-related macular degeneration. Red — Lycopene is the predominant pigment in reddish fruits and veggies. Lycopene serves as a powerful antioxidant and in some research has been associated with the reduction of risk of some cancers, especially prostate cancer, and protection against heart attacks. In a nut shell eat in season, eat fresh foods in an array of colors as often as you can! Now for a Thanksgiving favorite, stuffing. See the recipe my mom’s classic stuffing (which is so delicious) and my healthier version of it.

TACKLE HUNGER IN YOUR COMMUNITY B y R ya n K e at i n g

ootball season is upon us! As you and your family prepare for fun activities this fall, you will certainly want to make sure The Rivalry Series is one you put on your calendar! This is an annual charity flag football tournament in Red Bank at Count Basie Field that benefits Lunch Break and helps to tackle hunger in our community. The Rivalry Series is a single elimination flag football tournament on Friday, November 23rd, Black Friday, for families in Little Silver, Shrewsbury, Fair Haven, Rumson, Red Bank, Middletown, Oceanport and Monmouth Beach. All are welcome! It is great for people who are entertaining family from out of town that holiday weekend.

There are games for men, women and kids. The Rivalry Series has age brackets for 3rd/4th, 5th/6th and 7th/8th grade boys and girls. There are two adult men’s age brackets consisting of 18-34 or 35 and Older. The most exciting games are in the ladies’ bracket, which are open to any women 18 and Older. This event is very family-friendly and is what Monmouth County is all about —communities coming together to help others.

The participants in The Rivalry Series will wear their personalized jerseys the Saturday before Thanksgiving, November 17th when they feed warm meals to those in need at Lunch Break at The Rivalry Series Volunteer Day, which former participants have said this is the most special component of The Rivalry Series event. Then, on the biggest party night of the year (the Wednesday evening before Thanksgiving) all of the players and

their families will raise a glass together at the Downtown in Red Bank from 6-10pm for The Rivalry Series Kickoff Party. After feasting on turkey and stuffing on Thanksgiving Day, the towns will square off the following day, Friday, November 23rd, in this celebrated eight-town flag football tournament. The kids’ games are at 9pm, followed by the entertaining adult games at 11am, 1pm and 3pm. “It is a truly unique event to see the parents cheering on their children in the morning and immediately after, the children then cheering on their parents in the same day!” said event organizer, Rick Brandt. Brandt went on to say, “It is our hope that together, through The Rivalry Series we can help alleviate hunger in our community.” After the electrifying games conclude and the trophies have been hoisted by the winning towns, all of the players and their families from all eight towns will come together to celebrate the event’s success at Val’s Tavern in Rumson at 7pm for The Rivalry Series After Party! The event may have its lighthearted trash talking amongst the towns leading up to the week of Thanksgiving which everyone enjoys, but the real winner is Lunch
