Bob Gula was a wonderful speaker at Durand-Hedden this past programming year. It is wonderful to see him featured here.

Congratulations to Bob Gula, who is featured on the cover of this month’s Millburn & Short Hills Magazine! Read about Bob’s incredible work preserving history and educating the public through Forgotten Victory Trail and other community organizations! This is a well-deserved tribute to an individual who has worked tirelessly on so many projects for the Semiquincentennial & beyond!
