Normandy Park’s Blue Star Memorial By-Way—As we prepare to celebrate Veterans Day on Friday, November 11th, I wanted to highlight the Normandy Park Blue Star Memorial By-Way. The Blue Star Program honors all men and women that serve in the United States Armed Services, and we are honored to have one in Normandy Park. This program began with the planting of 8,000 Dogwood trees by the New Jersey Council of Garden Clubs in 1944 as a living memorial to veterans of World War II. In 1945, the National Council of State Garden Clubs (now NGC, Inc.) adopted this program and began a Blue Star Highway system that covers thousands of miles across the Continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii. The Blue Star was adopted because it had become an icon in World War II and was seen on flags and banners in homes for sons and daughters away at war.

As we prepare for Halloween on Monday, October 31st, I wanted to provide some safety tips for everyone. Adults should accompany young children. Make sure to carry a flashlight since it will get dark early. Stay within the neighborhood and only visit well-lit homes you know. Make sure children can see well through face masks. Wear light-colored clothing that is short enough to prevent tripping, and add reflective tape to the costume’s sides, front, and back if possible. Watch for traffic! Only give and accept wrapped or packaged candy. Examine all candy before allowing children to eat it. Keep costumed children away from pets. The pet may not recognize the child and become frightened. Avoid hard plastic or wood props such as daggers or swords.Substitute with foam rubber which is soft and flexible.
