The Wilder family has graciously donated Katherine Wilder's letters, wedding attire, wedding registry, photo of wedding party and more.

The Historical Society of Moorestown would like to thank Tappan Wilder, Catharine Wilder Guiles, and the Wilder Family, LLC for their cooperation and generosity.

We would also like to thank Mr. Greg Harr, Director of the Moorestown High School theater program.  It was while doing research prior to directing the 2012 Moorestown High School production of Our Town that he came across the Moorestown connection.   Without his help this story might never have come to light.

The Moorestown Youth Flag Football League (MYFFL) is a community-based recreation program for boys and girls from 1st thru 12th grades who are residents of, or attend a school located in, Moorestown.

We also offer children, parents, and our community a great social experience as we divide leagues by grade with each grade-league playing all their games weekly at the same time and location.

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN for our 2013 Fall Season playing 5 vs. 5 flag football games from just after Labor Day until our Super Bowl Saturday the weekend before Thanksgiving.

Registration Fees are:

• $70 Early Registration to 5/15/13

Meg is a shepherd/hound mix who has been living with us (a longtime Moorestown couple) as a foster dog for 3 months. She is a terrific dog, loves to cuddle and play. Fully house trained, loves walks, but is also quiet. Not a big barker and stays quiet all night. Minimal shedder. Smart: knows 'sit' 'kennel up' and 'paw.' We really don't want to bring her back to the shelter for adoption -- we are trying to adopt her from our home.

The only reason we are not keeping her is that we will be going abroad for work and cannot bring her. 

Meg's petfinder page is http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/23458030. 

Email adoptmeg@gmail.com if you have any questions or want to speak to us about her. Thank you!

Join the non-profit Moorestown Theater Company (the 2010 'Best Community Theater' in South Jersey according to the readers of 'SJ Magazine') for a FREE Video Preview Party for its Main Stage '11 production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (the Dick Van Dyke movie version) on Saturday, April 9, 2011 at 7 PM at Hope Community Church (235 W. Main St., across from the Wawa).  If you have an interest in appearing on-stage with MTC this summer, this is a great way to get familiar with the musical if you've never seen it (or to re-familiarize yourself if you have seen it before). Even if you're not sure if you want to be on-stage, come to Hope Community Church Saturday night and hang out with some fun theater people and see a great movie! (While the event is free, contributions will be accepted at the door to offset the Hope Community Church rental fee.)   Please visit MoorestownTheaterCompany.org to find out more information.
