Enjoy 'Halfway To The Holidays' At Lacey Library

LACEY, NJ — It's more fun to celebrate when the weather is nice than in the dead of winter. That's why the Ocean County Library Lacey Branch is hosting a halfway to the holidays celebration in July.

The “Snow Cones and Holiday Tunes Jamboree” will be held at the library at 2 p.m. on July 15.

This free family event invites you to beat the heat by indulging in some refreshing snow cones and jamming with BJ and the Band to your favorite holiday hits.

BJ and the Band is one of the Jersey Shore's most in-demand groups, specializing in Motown, rhythm 'n blues, and oldies, according to the library. The band has a lively Facebook presence, with photos and videos of concert appearances and lots of fan interaction.

Led by the soulful vocals of BJ Adams, the group tours the United States and Europe, and in clubs throughout the New York City metropolitan area. They have appeared with Dionne Warwick, Queen Latifah, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Kool & The Gang, and many others.
