1. JCC Maccabi Games leave a lasting impact on participants (jewishvoicesnj.org) — Cherry Hill's Katz JCC is celebrating its teens' silver-medal run at the 2026 JCC Maccabi Games while honoring the legacy of David Butler, who helped bring the JCC to 1301 Springdale Road and the 1999 Games to town. The article highlights South Jersey athletes' achievements, the Games' Jewish values, and invites local teens to join the 2027 delegation to Austin, Texas.
2. Rabid skunk found in Cherry Hill after fighting with resident's dog (courierpostonline.com) — Health officials have confirmed a rabid skunk in Cherry Hill after it fought with a resident's vaccinated dog on August 14, underscoring the need for vigilance around wild animals. The dog received a booster shot and will be monitored for 45 days, and Camden County is reminding residents to seek immediate medical care after any bite or scratch from wildlife.
3. 'The Odyssey' movie-goers are packing theaters. How did it happen? (northjersey.com) — If you're trying to see Christopher Nolan's hit film "The Odyssey" in its full 70mm glory, AMC Cherry Hill 24 is one of only two New Jersey theaters offering that premium format, and shows are selling out fast. Moviegoers statewide are scrambling for seats as the blockbuster helps revive big-screen attendance after the pandemic and Hollywood strikes.
4. Meet the young actor bringing 'Tony' to the big screen (reviewjournal.com) — Cherry Hill native Dominic Sessa, who grew up here before moving to New York, is starring as a young Anthony Bourdain in the new film "Tony." The 23-year-old reflects on his South Jersey upbringing, a hockey injury that pushed him toward acting, and how he approached portraying Bourdain's difficult younger years while trying to keep a low-key life offscreen.
