Go check out the newest exhibit (opened this week) the Tam-Ring Gibbons’ Reserve, featuring gibbon apes (an endangered species), reeve’s muntjac and white naped cranes from Southeast Asia. Described as a visually unique exhibit – like stepping into the forests of Southeast Asia – visitors interact with the animals up close.
Saturday, September 26 there are two neighborhood parties in Montclair:
Family fun at Crane Park Festival over by Lackawanna Plaza. Go say hi to BaristaKids and get sandy. What else: music from Parents Who Rock, food from The Wood Pit, Joey Thai, Gencarelli’s and The Flour Patch. Pet portraits from Phil Cantor Photography and demonstrations from Montclair Chess Club, Glen Ridge Tae Kwon-do and. ABCC Capoeira.

I would love to see Santorum get the nod. Maybe then the politically comatose members of society will wake up.
