Today's riddle: What do you call a belt that is made of watches? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Performers Visit Paramus Home (nj.gov) — Residents at the Veterans Memorial Home in Paramus recently enjoyed a lively visit from Neighbor+ and the Pilgrim Church Choir, who performed Korean and American music and dance. Families and residents called it one of the most enjoyable shows they've seen, with colorful costumes and multiple performances bringing smiles and a welcome break to local veterans' daily routines.
2. Try Hong Kong-style BBQ and more at North Jersey's newest restaurants (northjersey.com) — A new Hong Kong-style BBQ spot, Canton Rodeo, has just opened at Bergen Town Center in Paramus, serving slow-roasted duck, char siu pork, and plenty of sides. It's one of several fall restaurant debuts around North Jersey, but Paramus residents now have a distinctive new option right in town without needing to travel for trendy flavors.
3. Bergen New Bridge and Bergen Community College Grow the Next Generation of Food and Agriculture Professionals (tapinto.net) — Paramus residents should know that Bergen New Bridge Medical Center hosted Bergen Community College students for a hands-on internship in food, nutrition, agriculture, and horticulture right in town. The Growing Together program, funded by a USDA grant, lets students work alongside hospital staff, explore food-as-medicine careers, and gain practical skills that can lead to solid, family-supporting jobs in healthcare and agriculture.
4. Join The Fight Against Breast Cancer (healthandlifemags.com) — For Paramus neighbors looking to support breast-cancer patients and survivors, CancerCare New Jersey on Kalisa Way is highlighted as a local nonprofit resource. The piece also points to other nearby charities and explains why regular mammograms matter, addressing common fears about discomfort and clarifying what dense breast tissue really means for women's health decisions.
