The 200 Club of Morris County Welcomes 25 New Members

SUCCASUNNA, N.J. –Oct. 6, 2021 – The 200 Club of Morris County announced that it welcomed 25 new members at a recent recruitment event at Jersey Girl Brewing in Mount Olive.

The nonprofit continues to support local and state police, fire, and EMS personnel who protect the families in Morris County. Since 1971, The 200 Club has given more than $5 million to first responder families, either in the form of death benefits and dependent awards when a first responder dies in the line of duty, college scholarships to high school seniors of Morris County first responders, or seniors who are Morris County first responders themselves.

“We are proud to welcome more members who will help us keep our promise to the first responders who protect and care for our families,” said Jim Rizzo, who is the president of The 200 Club of Morris County. “We are grateful to the service of our first responders—police, firefighters and EMS—who sacrifice themselves for us every day.”

The recruitment event included a tour of the 10,000-square-foot brewery where everyone enjoyed Jersey Girl Brewing’s specialty craft beers. Owner Chuck Aaron, also a board member, was a gracious host. Michele’s Bistro food truck from Budd Lake provided a variety of delicious food for guests. As an event-planning destination, Jersey Girl Brewing Co. was the perfect venue for the evening’s gathering, boasting a sample room with high-top tables and an outdoor beer garden.

Rizzo thanked the well-deserved efforts of Vice President Rob D’Emidio, Membership Committee Chair V.P. Joe Jannarone, Chairman of the Board Bill Lockwood, plus the other board and club members and supporters for a successful event.
