Today's riddle: How do billboards talk? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Milestones Marked With Chesed at Yad Leah (jewishlink.news) — A Ramsey family recently turned their son Jack's bar mitzvah into a hands-on volunteer project at the Yad Leah center, packing clothing for families in Israel with his friends. Another family from Kew Gardens Hills marked a milestone birthday the same way, showing how personal celebrations can double as meaningful community service.
2. Metro-North riders face 30% fewer seats, closed stops (amedpost.com) — If you ride Metro-North's Port Jervis Line from Ramsey Route 17, expect weekend buses instead of trains between Port Jervis and Ramsey through October 11, with transfers to trains in town. Separate construction on Connecticut's Walk Bridge will also cut New Haven Line weekend capacity by 30%, so Ramsey riders heading to New York should plan for extra time and crowding.
3. New Jersey Highlands Coalition honors environmental advocates, announces 2026 grant recipients (wrnjradio.com) — Ramsey resident David Epstein has been honored by the New Jersey Highlands Coalition for decades of work preserving thousands of acres of open space, including major tracts in the Highlands. At the group's annual meeting, he and other advocates were recognized, and new small grants were awarded to grassroots projects that protect water, forests, and historic sites across northern New Jersey.
4. Timeless. Authentic. Allie Kenny. (voice-tribune.com) — A rising indie musician, Allie Kenny, grew up in Ramsey and still works at Ramsey Golf and Country Club while building a fast-growing national following on social media and TV. Her retro-inspired sound, new EP, and upcoming album draw heavily on classic rock influences and deeply personal experiences, all crafted with meticulous, old-school recording techniques.
