Holiday Vol.6 Issue 4—Join the Mr. Local History Project as we prepare to celebrate the holidays in our beautiful historic New Jersey. We know it’s early, but we must get the word out on so many historic celebrations that we want to get on your calendar. But FIRST, please enjoy Thanksgiving with your family. Then we go on a holiday roll!
The holiday season in New Jersey is one of the most magical seasons of the year. Our annual holiday edition takes the board of trustees on a journey to tell the history of events and history from our hometown of Basking Ridge, New Jersey. Join us and enjoy the history of the area. From each of us to all of you – all the best this holiday season. We hope to see you out there!

Following the theme of the edition is just one of the many photos we’ve gathered of the Caroling on the Green that takes place every Christmas Eve in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. This year is special as it’s the 100th running of this “bucket list” event.
