Our goal, however, was not to excite, but rather to help achieve a physical and spiritual balance. Participants reported lessening of the stress that they had experienced over the holiday season. Linda Flatt, coaxed vibration sounds from these bowls to enhance serenity and calm “on a cellular level” in people who attended the program.

From the imagination of both girls and boys appeared some very bizarre creatures and whimsical figures, made of Legos and Duplos.

It seems that experts on the subject of Ocean County railroad history were on both sides of the speaker’s podium during this program. Enthusiasm, insights, and information flowed freely until the wee hours of our branch’s closing hour (9pm).

People were amazed to find what could possibly lay in their own backyards. Heads up, rail enthusiasts! The Park will be offering van tours focusing on those concealed rails, and structural remnants.
