On Saturday, Oct. 19, join Preserving Black Haddonfield with a History Walking Tour starting at 10 a.m. at Centenniel Field Spectator Stand, 20 Park Place, Haddonfield, NJ. Complimentary parking is available at Acme Market at the intersection of Ellis Street and Haddon Avenue.  

This walking tour aims to strengthen Haddonfield’s reputation as a welcoming town by amplifying and preserving its long-overlooked African-American residents, their descendants, businesses, and other institutions.
