Thursday, July 1

A little of this and a little of that on the first day of July:

21 Plus was been around for more than thirty years but there’s a pretty good chance you’re not familiar with them. The organization was formed by a group of parents of children with developmental disabilities who were frustrated by the lack of available programs once they reached the age of 21.
Over the last three decades the organization has grown tremendously as has the need for their services and currently they provide opportunities for almost 150 adults in Ocean County. They operate several group homes and apartments, have an adult training center as well as a supported employment program and just last year added in-home and out-of-home respite services.
I tell you this because on Monday, July 19th the 21 Plus Foundation will hold their 4th annual Golf Classic at Eagle Ridge Golf Club in Lakewood and I will serve as Master of Ceremonies for the awards dinner afterwards which will also include an auction. Among the items to be auctioned off are golf foursomes, Yankees tickets and tickets to an HBO premiere in New York.
For information on playing golf or just attending the dinner you can call
21 Plus at (732) 240-3118 or visit their website at www.21plus.org.

The Manchester Township High School Class of 2000 is holding their 10-year reunion on Saturday evening July 10th at the Quality Inn of Toms River.

Millennium Radio’s Shore Sports Network will be the home of Monmouth University football for the next three years. We have reached agreement with the school and Nelligan Sports Marketing on the multi-year extension to broadcast the Hawks games on 1160 WOBM and Shore Sports 1310. Monmouth football was broadcast on the Shore Sports Network for the first time last fall. Matt Harmon, the play-by-play voice of our high school sports programming will once again broadcast the games with fellow Hawk alum Ed Occhipinti.

All you need to know about how far the New York Knicks have fallen is the fact they are not considered one of the front-runners to land free agent mega star Lebron James. Most experts feel the New Jersey Nets have a better chance of getting King James which is really sad…if you’re a Knicks fan.
