2018-12-21 - Hometown Histories (Stories Worth Remembering) - Meeting Ocean Grove: Ted Bell, Ocean Grove Historian
Hometown Histories now starts Stories about towns that used to be part of Ocean Township. Robert Waitt, President of the Ocean Grove Historical Society, interviews Ted Bell historian for the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting.
The Township of Ocean was formed in 1849 when the Township of Shrewsbury was split and the section along the coast was named Ocean. Many of our neighboring towns were once part of Ocean but broke off to form their own towns over time (which is why the Township of Ocean today has no oceanfront). The Borough of Interlaken broke off from the Township of Ocean in 1922.
Peggy Dellinger, Exhibit Director of the Museum hosts this episode. Dallas Grove is the Executive Producer; Produced by Ted Dellinger; Music is by Bill Madden.
Funding for Hometown Histories was provided by the New Jersey Cultural Trust.
