For our special treat today, in honor of all things Italian style and to honor the Fair Haven Volunteer Fire Company Spaghetti Dinner, we take you back to a minute with the fire company’s own fair Italian lady, Jeanette Choma.
Jeanette has been working at the Fair Haven Firemen’s Fair, well, forever. She loves working in the Grab Bag Booth and selling those balloons.
And, she will tell you in a heartbeat that she’s been at the fair for “50 YEARS!”
Watch what happens when we ask her about her age in this outtake clip above.
The third annual Rumson St. Patrick’s Day parade is set for Sunday at 1 p.m.
The relatively new area tradition has drawn hundreds of participants and thousands of viewers.
This year, the parade is dedicated to its first lead organizer, Michael Larkin. Fair Havenite and Fox 5 reporter JoAnn Pileggi is back for the third year as emcee; and the grand marshal is Philip Murphy, a Middletown resident with a Rumson connection who was U.S. Ambassador to Germany.
Take a look back in our slideshow revisiting the first Rumson St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
See you Sunday!
