Roxbury Remembers. Roxbury Serves.
Roxbury Day of Service in Honor of 9/11 Heroes - 9/17/2011
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Continuing a tradition begun in 2010, residents of Roxbury Township gathered on September 17, 2011 to remember the victims of the attacks and honor the heroes of September 11 through community service.
Over 75 volunteers representing nine faith communities, three Scout groups, and other community organizations participated in the event. Volunteers assisted 15 senior homeowners in fixing up their properties by trimming bushes, painting, planting, and weeding. Cub Scout Pack 54 worked to weed and clean up near the entrance to the Roxbury Township Senior Center at Horseshoe Lake.
In addition, our food drive at PathMark in Landing and ShopRite in Succasunna collected nearly 60 boxes of food for Roxbury Township Social Services.
The annual community-wide event is a partnership between the Township of Roxbury and the Roxbury Clergy Council, with support from businesses including PathMark, ShopRite, and the Home Depot.
