Today's riddle: What do you call a paper airplane that can't fly? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Recycling Truck Catches Fire Along South Jersey Highway: Officials (patch.com) — A Haddonfield recycling truck caught fire on Route 42, likely sparked by improperly discarded lithium batteries, but the driver escaped unharmed. Local officials are urging residents to keep batteries out of regular trash and recycling, directing people to the borough website and an upcoming hazardous waste event for safe disposal options that directly affect how Haddonfield households handle their waste.
• These 7 New Jersey Towns Have The Best Historic Districts (worldatlas.com) — Haddonfield's historic district takes center stage here, highlighting the Indian King Tavern, Friends Meetinghouse, Greenfield Hall, and the walkable stretch of Kings Highway and nearby streets that preserve the borough's colonial roots. The piece also compares Haddonfield's preserved architecture with other notable New Jersey historic towns, offering ideas for day trips and context for how special Haddonfield's downtown really is.
• A new pecking order: Collingswood will allow backyard chickens after earlier ban (inquirer.com) — Collingswood has just joined Haddonfield and other Camden County towns in allowing residents to keep regulated backyard hens, after years of debate and organizing by pro-chicken advocates. For Haddonfield residents, it's a reminder that your own town already permits hens, and that the region is steadily embracing small-scale, tightly controlled urban chicken keeping with strict rules on numbers, cleanliness, and enforcement.
