In the event of extreme heat, the County Health Officer issues a heat alert to each municipal clerk.  If you do not have an air conditioner or fan, please call the borough clerk for the location of the designated buiding that will have air conditioning.   If you know anyone who is homebound and does not have an air conditioner or cannot afford to run the air conditioner, please call 856-858-3317 and apply for a fan.

Camden County has a program in conjunction with some of the local Farmer's Markets.  If you make below $1575 per year you qualify to receive four $5 vouchers to purchase fruits or vegetables.  Call 856-858-3317 for more information.  This is a limited program.

There will be a Senior Art Show at the Haddon Township Library.  The dates of the show are June 2nd through June 30th.  Awards will be given out on June 4th.  You may enter a painting, photography, sculpture or a one of a kind craft.  Anyone interested in participating may contact Karen Herman.

If anyone knows a shut in that cannot attend the free concerts given by the County, please contact your Municipal Senior Coordinator and a request can be made to have a Musical Interlude.  This means that they will send a small group of musicians to the shut in's home.

Poetry in the Park - Every second Monday of the month from 7:00PM to 9:00PM the Camden County Cultural & Heritage Commission holds a poetry in the park at the Hopkins House on Cooper River.  Anyone who is a poetry writer can read their poetry and anyone can attend.

Art Displays - There is always art on display at the Hopkins House on Cooper River.  Anyone wishing to go and view the art may do so between the hours of Tuesday through Friday 10:00AM to 1:00PM and 2:00PM to 4:00PM.  They are also open on Saturdays from noon to 4:00PM.
