Today's riddle: What do you call a one-legged Big Foot? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Rupert Holmes and Friends in Fundraising Concert at Cranford High School (patch.com) — Cranford High School is hosting a one-night fundraising concert with Rupert Holmes on November 20, 2026, to support the CHS Performing Arts Department's educational trip to Disney. Held at 201 West End Place, the intimate show promises close-up performances, storytelling, and a big boost for local students' arts education, with public ticket sales opening October 3 at 9 a.m.
• Cranford-based bath fixture distributor JACLO purchased by PrimeSource Brands (roi-nj.com) — Cranford-based bath fixture distributor JACLO, which operates the JACLO and Durst brands, has been acquired by Texas-based PrimeSource Brands, marking PrimeSource's 12th deal since 2020. The move folds a long‑standing Cranford company into a larger decorative plumbing portfolio, potentially influencing local employment and the town's role in the national building products market.
• Netflix's 'Best of the Best' brings Jersey dance to screen (njbiz.com) — A new Netflix dance comedy, "Best of the Best," was partly filmed at a private home in Cranford, putting the town on the map alongside other New Jersey locations like Montclair State and Jersey City. The movie showcases Rutgers Bollywood fusion dancers and bhangra performers, highlighting New Jersey's vibrant South Asian dance community and giving local students hands-on film experience.
