Bay Head Historical Society Celebrates the Holidays with a Victorian Christmas Party at the Museum on Saturday, December 6th from 1:00pm to 4:00pm

It may be cold at the beach, but the Bay Head Historical Society invites you to come inside and warm up with a Victorian Christmas Party at the Museum on Saturday, December 6th from 1:00pm to 4:00pm. Bring the kids to see the Christmas tree with authentic turn-of-the-century decorations. The Christmas trolley, with Santa on Board, will be running free of charge.

The headquarters of the Bay Head Historical Society Museum is the Loveland Homestead, an authentic farmhouse which was built in 1867 by the Loveland family, a prominent family from England. It is located at 1643 Bay Avenue on the corner of Bridge Avenue, at the base of the Lovelandtown Bridge. Phone: (732) 892-0223.

Harvest Time in Bay Head, NJ: Looks Like the Arts & Crafts Festival Is Cancelled

I was just checking out the Fall activities scheduled in Bay Head, NJ, and it looks like the Sixth Annual Arts & Crafts Festival scheduled for Saturday, October 11th, has been cancelled.

If you're looking for something to do that day, why not consider the Bay Head Historical Society House Tour, and snoop around our neighbors' houses from 11am to 3pm.

I'm sure I'll be sorry to have missed the annual Bay Head Dog Walk, also scheduled for October 11th, but I'm sure the dogs will leave something on my lawn to remind me that they stopped by our beach house. You can register your sweet pups in front of Mary Holder Realty, 520 Main Avenue, at 12:30pm, and the walk starts at 1:00 PM. There's a registration fee, but proceeds go to a good cause, the local animal shelter.

During the month of October, you can also see the display of scarecrows around town and vote for your favorite by dropping your ballot in the boxes you'll find in designated stores.

And last, but certainly not least, London and Maddie, Rex and I will all be in Bay Head for the Halloween Parade on Sunday, October 26th. Line up in front of the shops on Mount Street 11:30am and march to the Bay Head Firehouse, where prizes will be given out. Be on the lookout for Barbie, Ken, and a pair of Sharpays from High School Musical!

Bay Head Historical Society House Tour Scheduled for October 11, 2008

It's that time of year in Bay Head, New Jersey...time to snoop into the neighbors' homes during the Bay Head Historical Society House Tour. This year, it is scheduled for Saturday, October 11th from 11am to 3pm. For more information call 732-892-0223.

Rex and I love to participate in these events, and we'll usually bring along his mom and get a teenage babysitter to keep London and Maddie entertained...last year, the Bay Head School Foundation hosted a kitchen tour, with a taste of more than ten local area restaurants served up in Bay Head and Mantoloking kitchens.

This year, we'll miss the Bay Head Historical Society House Tour, since we're headed away to Duck, North Carolina for a long weekend. Why don't you go and tell us all about it?
