Later in the month, kids can enjoy the Haunted Forest at Secaucus High School and a Spooktacular Halloween celebration at the Secaucus Public Library, both featuring costumes, crafts, and seasonal fun.
2. Where Secaucus' 2 Newest Data Centers Will Go; Will Bring Town's Total To 11 (patch.com) — Secaucus is adding two more data centers on County Avenue and Hartz Way, bringing the town's total to 11 and intensifying debate over zoning and environmental impacts. Mayor Mike Gonnelli and town officials say NJSEA rules limit their power to block such projects, while residents raise concerns about AI-related upgrades and push for stronger local ordinances and regional action.
3. Employment Opportunity Available: Coordinator of Senior Services (secaucusnj.net) — Secaucus is hiring a full-time Coordinator of Senior Services to lead town programs, transportation, events, and Meals on Wheels for older residents. The role, based at 101 Centre Ave, offers a $65,000–$75,000 salary, requires strong organizational and communication skills, and involves coordinating calendars, grants, and partnerships that shape daily life for local seniors.
4. HS Football: Hasbrouck Heights Defense Shuts Down Secaucus, 35-0 (tapinto.net) — Secaucus football fans saw a tough night at home as the Patriots fell 35–0 to Hasbrouck Heights in Friday's NJIC Meadowlands matchup.
