• Pick-Up Band Revival Restores Beloved Haddonfield Tradition (theretrospect.com) — Haddonfield’s famously no-rehearsal Pick-Up Band is finally returning to local parades and holiday celebrations after a long COVID-era hiatus, reviving a 50-year town tradition. Founded by teacher Tom Patton in 1970, the all-comers ensemble has become a beloved soundtrack to Independence Day, tree lightings, and other community gatherings, and longtime members are now working to bring its music — and massive sheet-music archive — back to life.    

• 10 New Jersey Small Towns That Feel Like Stepping Into A Different Century (myfamilytravels.com) — Haddonfield is highlighted as a standout colonial-era town where preserved architecture, the Indian King Tavern Museum, and a lively dining scene make history feel very present and walkable.
