Washington Township Rotary Club and Berkshire Hathaway Realtors, Turnersville, has partnered together and adopted the Pfc. Angelo Giacobbe Memorial Site on Ganttown Road. This project was made possible because of a generous grant awarded by the Rotary District. The plaque signage has been mounted on the benches, and the final phase, landscaping, will be completed in the fall. Rotarians will then come together with Berkshire Hathaway Realtors on Berkshire Hathaway's Community Service Day, Thursday, October 4th for the formal dedication. |

Slogan: At this time, none whatsoever! It used to be "The Garden State," but with large-scale industrialization and housing developments going up all over the state, the slogan raises questions with out-of-staters. When newly elected Governor Corzine sponsored a contest for a new state slogan in 2005. The announced winner was "New Jersey, Come See For Yourself!" (The preferred entry from my sources is: "I'm From New Jersey; Ya Gotta Problem Widdat?"). There was little enthusiasm for the winning entry, so a professional advertising firm has been asked to come up with a slogan.
