Rutgers marching band to rock MetLife at Giants halftime

The Marching Scarlet Knights are heading from Rutgers' home turf to one of the biggest stages in New Jersey. Rutgers University's 375-member marching band will perform Oct. 12 at MetLife Stadium during halftime of the Giants' game against the Washington Commanders . The seven-minute show will feature music by Michael Jackson, My Chemical Romance and Rush, along with the band's formations on the field. The performance is a revamped version of a show the band previously performed at SHI Stadium in Piscataway. "The Giants want a throwback rock 'n' roll type show," Rutgers Director of University Bands Todd Nichols said. "We will bring parts of this show back, dust it off, and polish it while learning a second show for the Rutgers Military Appreciation Game on Saturday. These students are amazing." Rutgers marching band returns to MetLife Stadium It will be the fourth MetLife Stadium performance by the Marching Scarlet Knights during Nichols' 10-year tenure at Rutgers. The band previously performed twice for the Jets, and Thursday will mark its second appearance for the Giants. "MetLife is a spectacular stadium to play in," Nichols said.

After 60 years, Neshaminy Mall historic dioramas saved | Exclusive

Ten minutes. That’s how long it took to rescue the last three pieces of unique historical artwork from imminent destruction in Bucks County on Tuesday. Ten minutes after a week of careful planning, precise measuring and tricky demolition work necessary to free the large window-size dioramas in the now-closed Neshaminy Mall in Bensalem. The displays removed Nov. 10 were the last of seven animatronic dioramas depicting scenes from Colonial life during the American Revolution that were installed nearly 60 years ago as part of an intended permanent exhibit. With demolition of more than half of the mall property scheduled to start next month as part of a major mixed-use redevelopment of the property, Bensalem officials had pledged to save the last and most difficult to remove of the displays. Sally Van Sant Sondesky, founder and former president of the Bensalem Historical Society, was among the handful of onlookers Tuesday who got a close up view as they were removed. The scenes depicted William Penn signing a treaty with the Shackamaxon tribe; Ben Franklin’s 1785 return to Philadelphia from Paris and finally, the 1777-78 hiding of the Liberty Bell in Allentown. “You can’t do that anymore,” Van Sant Sondesky said of

Wednesday: Veterans Day, Honoring All Who Served; What’s Closed

Wednesday, November 11, is Veterans Day, the annual federal holiday honoring the men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. The observance recognizes veterans who served in wartime and peacetime.

Somerville library controversy takes another twist

SOMERVILLE - The Somerset County Library System is pushing back on a claim by Mayor Brian Gallagher that it engaged in a "false narrative" about the closing of the Somerville branch. In a statement, the Library System said it had "prioritized transparent and direct communication" throughout the process and had created a webpage to keep residents informed about the situation. The Library System also said that the decision to close the facility on West End Avenue next to Borough Hall on July 31 was "not driven solely by environmental health concerns" but also because it was "functionally inadequate for delivering services" since the closing of the lower level in August 2025. "The situation extends well beyond the presence or remediation of mold," according to the statement. "I'm not going to get into a verbal contest with them," Gallagher said, adding he was looking forward to "re-engaging" with Library System officials after Nov. 30. "We believe that building should be ready for reoccupation shortly," Gallagher said at the Nov. 2 Borough Council meeting, adding, "not that there was anything wrong with it to begin with."
