The Borough of Collingswood will host its inaugural Pop-Up Gala on Sat Sep 7.

If you were to pack an elegant dinner for two, what would we find in your picnic basket?

• VEDRA CHANDLER is certain that her picnic basket would include “champagne and Bobby Chez crab cakes!” Vedra enjoys living close to Collingswood’s downtown shopping and restaurant scene.

• CYNTHIA ZIPPILLI – the owner of The American Table – is an expert when it comes to elegant al fresco dining. “I would bring a wine chiller, a bottle of good wine, and a good cheese,” she said.

• BOBBY MILLER (far right) and his family and friends (from left) TOBY, JoANN, BOB, and MARCIA DUBON described a diverse menu of “Wawa sandwiches with fancy napkins, roast duck, Chinese steam buns, a bottle of wine, and a fruit and cheese board.” The group is pictured enjoying the dining scene at El Sitio Grill Cafe on Haddon Ave in Collingswood.

• SOPHIA, KRYSTAL, and RAQUEL ABANIL would be sure to include Krystal’s favorite food, spaghetti, on their picnic menu. Their basket would also hold some “wine and probably some sort of Japanese food ... We would bring along Satsuki, our dog, because we’d like to include her in the outing too!” they agreed.

• JAMES YOAKUM and KATE ALLEN live in South Philadelphia but enjoy visiting friends and dining in Collingswood. They would be sure to bring along “a good red wine and some fancy cheeses, fruit ... and olives!”

The King’s Road (a musical)

Written by Haddonfield’s Harry T. Kaufmann for the 250th celebration in 1963 and reprised in 1975 for the nation’s bicentennial, this delightful musical follows the lives of Mary Hopkins, Joshua Cresson, Jonas Cattell and others as they discover patriotism and fall in love amidst the intrusion of the British and Hessian armies. With the Indian King Tavern as a backdrop, the lovable innkeeper Hugh Creighton and his sprightly chambermaid Katie Muldoon play host to generals and troops, all of whom find themselves as guests of the Quaker village while the war rages on around them. Filled with singing, dancing, marching and merriment, this poignant tribute to the history of Haddonfield will touch the audience’s hearts once again.

 Plans are underway for the 11th annual Collingswood Book Festival which will take place on Sat Oct 5. Thanks in part to the tireless efforts of festival volunteers, activities surrounding the Book Festival will again be free and open to the public. On Oct 5, more than 50 authors and poets will join over 250 exhibitors as thousands of book lovers stroll Haddon Ave. Year after year, kids enjoy Loompaland, a special area dedicated to authors, crafts, performances, and interactive events just for them. Sages of Ages – a fun-filled afternoon for the over-50 set – will return. And, poetry buffs of all ages will be treated to several special events. The Book Festival has become a cherished tradition in Collingswood and you are invited to become part of it! Generally, volunteer meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month at 7:45pm at the Collingswood Public Library (771 Haddon Ave). Do you love poetry, romance novels, satire, or sports? Fuel your passion and find your niche as a volunteer at the Collingswood Book Festival. Do you like kids and crafts? Help out in Loompaland, the children’s area that grows bigger and better every year. Your assistance is needed even if you are unavailable to attend monthly meetings. Contact Jean Brennan at jbren61222@aol.com to find out how you can help make this festival “one for the books!”

Create a poem by stacking book titles to make a poem, verse, or story – the possibilities are limitless. You can use books from your own collection or books from the library or a bookstore. Arrange ... then rearrange! Your stack’s unique statement may be serious or humorous. Document your poem by taking a photo. Your photo entry must be delivered to the Collingswood Library – or e-mailed to twdr112@gmail.com – by Tue Oct 1. Judging will take place at the Collingswood Book Festival on Sat Oct 5.

Consider the Job Pool

 Soon summer will fade to memory and fall leaves will become our reality. With fall – and winter! – comes raking and shoveling, as well as other seasonal tasks. Students from the Collingswood Student Job Pool are eager to help with tasks like yard clean-ups, garage organizing, planting, weeding, and basic painting. For most household tasks, rates start at $10 per hour, per student. When the snow begins to fall, students will be available for shoveling at a rate of $15 per hour. (Note: Call in advance of predicted snow to schedule.) As members of the Job Pool, students are coached on job-keeping attitudes and practices; reliability and service are stressed. For further information, or to schedule a student to work, call 240-1944.

Firefighters hit the streets

› To encourage residents to maintain their smoke detectors, the Collingswood Fire Department will resume its voluntary home inspection program. All residents should have working fire detectors at ceiling level, on each floor of their home, including the basement and attic, and in every bedroom. Smoke detectors should be tested monthly and batteries should be replaced every six months. Missing a detector? Crews will replace batteries and hang free smoke detectors (up to two) when they visit your home. The uniformed firefighters will also answer questions and discuss “pre-incident planning.” If you’re out when the firefighters knock on your door, no worries! You can visit the station and pick up two free detectors at any time. 854-7447
