Retro RFH Haunting

Sometimes it’s not just the spirit of the season. Sometimes we are haunted by good memories. The year was 1977. It was an RFH Halloween.
Seniors of the Class of ’78 were geared up for some ghostly fun. They gathered in the Senior Commons and paraded around, and, yes, out of the confines of the RFH campus.
Focus: Falling for a Riverfront Fall
Crisp air, bright sun and reflections of riverfront life are all it takes to fall for the Rumson-Fair Haven area in autumn.
The scene just doesn’t get any more comforting. It seems to always reach out and embrace the local soul. And it never gets old.
Get a glimpse. Take it in.

By nature, there are a lot of very theatrical things about a fun fall day at the beach with a buddy, especially when you’re an RFH student and theatrical sort.

As Hurricane Michael makes his menacing way up the coast, the weather forecast says that the Rumson-Fair Haven area will see some spill-over downpours on Thursday. But, there’s also hope of a clear, crisp sunny weekend, especially on Sunday.
Scene Around: Marine Research Vessel Dedicated to Memory of Rumson’s Heidi Sculthorpe
Rumsonite Heidi Lynn Sculthorpe was known as a woman who loved the water.
She passed away on April 25, 2008; and her love of all things water-centric, family and friends was something that loved ones noted as everlasting. In fact, her obituary cited that in lieu of flowers, donations should be sent to Monmouth University’s Urban Coast Institute (UCI).
Retro Fair Haven Brownie Troopers
It’s that time of the year when all the troops are rallying — Girl Scout troops, that is.
Nowadays there is quite an array of scout troop hierarchy, all falling under Girl Scouts. It used to just be Brownies and regular ol’ Girl Scouts with those brown and green uniforms, respectively. There were troops. They met at what used to be called the Youth Center in Fair Haven, at churches sometimes, and often at the nursery school on the Episcopal church property that was knocked down to make way for homes a few years ago.
