Sometimes ya just have to go clubbing … in Sea Bright … before the age of 10.
After all, what good Rumson kid didn’t? Not many, if any. And back in the summer of ’69, little Claire Hurd was one who went clubbing … to Sea Bright Beach Club, of course, with the best of them. It was just the way Rumsonites rolled in the summer. Still do.
Rumson-raised Regina Cooke Clayton, more recently of Red Bank, passed away peacefully at home on July 29, surrounded by the love of her family. She was 86.
The punk rockin’ Rumson-raised chef and author known as Rossi came back home again to Jersey talk and joke about her latest memoir The Punk Rock Queen of the Jews.

The weekend promises to be a nice one, as far as good weather goes. Ahhhhh …
Reprise from 2016, just because ‘Birdie’ has made a comeback in community theater this summer, people are talking and we think more people need to remember summer theater fun at the old classic — The Barn Theatre …
Summer is in full swing. School’s out and kids are embarking on summer activities. The weekend is here. So is summer theater.
In fact, Spring Lake Theater Company’s next summer production is none other than Bye, Bye Birdie. And back in the 1970s, some RFH teens were acting that very musical out … in summer theater at The Barn Theatre in Rumson.
It’s no longer 1980. But some RFH besties really can’t tell the difference nearly five decades makes, anyway.
Making waves. It’s what Clean Ocean Action (COA) is doing once again, as its organization tagline touts, in a tidal wave of an effort to protect the area’s water.

How does your garden grow? Gracefully, some might say.
Grace. It’s a thing we feel we must have, say and do to make life go more smoothly. Say grace. Give grace. Have grace. Age with grace. Do it with grace. Why not grow with grace? Better yet, grow with Grace — with a capital G, that is.

Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale … about an eight-hour tour, or hundreds, on the river in Rumson.
The part about this typical eight-hour tour in Rumson that doesn’t jibe with the three-hour tour Gilligan’s Island folks is that the kids on these “tours” sailed right into a marooning of their own making on what’s known as Starvation Island, just minutes from home. Who knew or cared, though? No one except the jolly river adventurers.
A reprise of a real classic because it’s summertime and that means it’s island cruising time in the Rumson-Fair Haven area …
It’s a case of summer island plopping. Yes, that’s right. Island plopping.
That would be the more accurate term when telling the pretty common story of some Fair Haven and Rumson kids taking their own eight-hour tour of the Navesink and Shrewsbury rivers and ending up settling down for some adventure on Starvation Island in Rumson on pretty much any summer day.
