Join us for our upcoming Annual Candlelight Dinner on Wednesday, March 13, at Tavistock Country Club. Cocktails start at 6 pm, dinner at 7pm, and our featured speaker starts at 8 pm.
The Candlelight Dinner is one of our largest fundraisers, and we hope you will come and enjoy the evening to support the Historical Society of Haddonfield.
Homecoming 250 is a volunteer effort to welcome home the Navy and Marine Corps to celebrate at their birthplace in October 1775 in Philadelphia at the Continental Congress meeting.
Our speaker is Judge George Leone, chair of the nonprofit organizing the 250 Anniversary of the Marine Corps. Judge Leone is a resident of Haddonfield, the son of a WWII Navy veteran and a lifetime student of military history. He graduated from Harvard and the University of Chicago Law School. He previously served as a judge in the New Jersey Superior Court in Camden and in the Appellate Division. Earlier, he was an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Camden, and Chief of the Appeals Division for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey. He currently serves on the board of Trustees for the Battleship New Jersey, where the planned celebration was first launched.
