MORRISTOWN ROTARY HOSTS JAPANESE EXCHANGE STUDENTS FOR AN ACTION-PACKED CULTURAL TOUR OF MORRISTOWN

MORRISTOWN, NJ — On August 11th, the Morristown Rotary Club welcomed District 7475’s Japanese Short-Term Exchange students for a vibrant, full-day tour celebrating the rich history, local flavor, and community spirit of Morristown.

The day began with an immersive walk through history at the iconic Morristown Green, where students explored the park’s numerous Revolutionary War points of interest and historic statues. The historical deep-dive continued with a visit to the beautiful Presbyterian Church and its historic cemetery, followed by a stop at the Morris County Courthouse, visiting the historic old main courtroom and hearing from Sheriff Gannon and Chancery Presiding Judge DeMarzo.

After taking in the town's historical landmarks, the group refueled with a classic local favorite: a great pizza lunch at Millie’s.

The afternoon brought plenty of energy and entertainment. The students spent time playing classic arcade games at the Morristown Game Vault, an experience sponsored by GAMEVAULT care of owner David Baldamini and FULLY PROMOTED care of Rotarian, George Zacieracha. The fun continued with a special visit from puppies representing The Seeing Eye, offering the students a firsthand look at Morristown's world-famous guide dog training organization. Thank you Lorelei Stochaj and her companions.

To cool off, everyone enjoyed fantastic, sweet ice-cream from SOREAL Gelato, Washington Street care of Rania, before wrapping up the day with an inspiring cultural excursion to the Morris Museum.

The exchange program highlights Rotary District 7475's ongoing commitment to international friendship and cultural understanding, leaving the visiting students with unforgettable memories of Morristown’s heritage and hospitality.

Morristown Rotary Club Launches it’s Annual Gently Used Children’s Book Drive to Benefit Local Youth

MORRISTOWN, NJ — Building on a tradition that puts thousands of books into the hands of eager young readers, the Morristown Rotary Club is thrilled to announce the launch of its annual Gently Used Children’s Book Drive.

     The drive will officially begin on August 15th and run through September 25th.

      Residents are invited to donate gently used books appropriate for children ranging from pre-school age through approximately 5th grade. Please note that textbooks cannot be accepted.

     The Morristown Rotary Club has set up convenient drop-off locations throughout the community. Specially marked depository boxes will be available in the entranceways of the following expected local businesses:

Fully Promoted — 16 Pine St, Morristown, NJ

Peapack Private Bank and Trust — 233 South Street, Morristown, NJ

     Books to be REDISTRIBUTED at the Festival on the Green for FREE

The climax of the book drive will take place on September 27th at the highly anticipated Morristown Festival on the Green.

All collected books will be transported to the Morristown Rotary Booth, where they will be redistributed absolutely free of charge to any children attending the festival. In past years, this initiative has successfully collected and redistributed approximately 2,000 books annually, fostering a love of reading and supporting literacy throughout the community.

"Our annual book drive is a testament to the generosity of the Morristown community," said Will Draper, President of the Morristown Rotary Club. "Seeing the joy on children's faces as they pick out books to take home for free is what makes this project so rewarding. We encourage everyone to clean out their bookshelves this summer and help us match—or beat—our past record of 2,000 books."
