Township meeting is tonight at 7pm. We need as many people as possible tonight. To make a long story short. The township is no longer going to pay for our utilities and would like us to pay it. They cut our utilities from the budget. They told us, they don't have the money. Please show up and support your local fire department.

Fun fact: They made sure to give themselves a raise last meeting.

Cool non fire info about Rosenhayn

The community of Rosenhayn is within Deerfield in Cumberland County. Rosenhayn was settled with the aid of the Hebrew Emigrant Aid Society of New York City in 1883. It is another Jewish agriculture based colony, and is two and a half miles northeast of Carmel. Rosenhayn is between Vineland and Bridgeton, and it is in total 1,912 acres. Originally, Rosenhayn was settled by six families and they were tasked with clearing the area to prepare the land for their plan to be an agricultural based community. The location of Rosenhayn made it difficult for the six families to clear the land due to the thick wilderness. These difficulties caused the six original families to leave the settlement. A few years later, in 1888, people came back to Rosenhayn, this time 37 families came to clear and cultivate the land. These families were successful in building their agriculture community, because they were able to sell their harvest in New York City. They mainly grew corn, grapes, and berries. Rosenhayn had the opportunity to expand the community due to their success. With this expansion, the Rosenhayn community was able to extend their ventures beyond agriculture into industrial work. The community had a clothing factory and a brick yard, and other manufactures in tinware and hosiery. The community continued to grow and by 1900 had a population of 800. Life in Rosenhayn grew around the synagogue and school. The synagogue was built in 1898 and was called Congregation Or Yisroel, which is one of the only remaining synagogues in the state from the nineteenth century. Today the synagogue is called the Congregation Beth Israel or the Garton Road Synagogue.
