Well, RFH has emerged victorious once again. Friday night’s win made them state champions. And while the team is busy playing all the way to champion wins, there’s a lot more in the way of school spirit going on down on the field and/or sidelines, not to mention bleachers.

Retro RFH Bleacher Chillin’ Daze
‘Tis the season for an appropriate reprise …
Yes, it’s been a stellar RFH football season. And while the games aren’t always home, those bleachers at Borden Stadium have always been and are still quite sacred — for cheering on the teams and just plain hangin’ out, game or not.
In the spirit of all things sporty and sportsmanlike, everyone knows that RFHers are pretty serious about their good bleacher times.

Our annual Veterans Day tribute … (Click on the right corner icon to enlarge and the arrow of the above slideshow. WAIT for it to upload and play. Click one of the photos in the above gallery to enlarge and scroll.)
Their faces are the faces at the core of a close-knit community. Some have passed. Some are still with us. They are cherished. They are veterans.
They were and are neighbors, dads, and just plain friendly faces around the Rumson-Fair Haven area towns.
They served. They fought for freedom.
They lived and still do live their lives with hometown pride, honor and respect. They were, they are founding fathers, friends. They were, they are cornerstones of the sense of community that is the Rumson-Fair Haven area.
The gift of their legacies bears no upscale real estate market value. They passed along a love of country and community that is priceless.
Thank you, on Veterans Day, to the veterans of the area who have passed and those who are still with us. You are cherished, honored.
Take a look at some of their faces and remember the legacy they carry.

The stage is getting set for the RFH Tower Players’ fall production of Nutcracker; and, there’s a need for some techie help in set construction.
Yes, it’s a tough job, and those who have to do it love to do it. The need is just greater than past years for some tech crew help.
So, we’re taking you back … to the days of a rather opulent set and a diligent crew setting it.

Photos/RFH Yearbook
Well, with the 2024 presidential election kicking off the week, it seemed only appropriate to continue in that theme with retro RFH photos — class presidents, their teams and even the top administrator.
Why not? If the day fits … And, lest we forget that back in the 1970s, there was a bicentennial for the U.S.A. going on. And there was much making of the year in the theme of RFH festivities and the yearbook.
The RFH Class of ’76, in fact, reprised its own ode to our first president, George Washington, with a mock crossing of, shall we say, McCarter Pond?

A reprise of an RFH classic from 2016, just because it’s that time again …
Election Day is drawing near.
Political season has been in full swing in more ways than one — punches are being thrown in all directions.
It’s why they call it silly season. But, let’s take the focus off national and local politics of today and step back in time to the 1970s and politics as it was with RFH students and teachers.
