The Montclair Center Business Improvement District, along with some help from Essex County, was out in Montclair Center Wednesday morning, removing the Winter Snowflake Skyline down from over Bloomfield Avenue. We always love the seasonal display put up by BID, though the snowflakes seemed a bit lonely this year without much real snowfall to go with it.

Snowflakes safely stored until next year, BID is now asking for your thoughts on Montclair Center. The organization has set up an online survey seeking input from Montclair Center customers and stakeholders.

BID is trying to get a comprehensive look at how different constituents view Montclair Center and solicit suggestions to make it better. The survey takes about ten minutes, and those who complete it can enter a drawing for a $100 gift certificate for Montclair Center. To begin the survey, click here.

Doreen Sarcone is at Foley Field sending pictures and news from the big Montclair v. Bloomfield game. The undefeated Montclair team, which scored almost immediately, now leads 21 to 0 with just a few minutes left in the first quarter.

The weather cooperated for the 6 p.m. kickoff. Teams are playing for the Investors Bank Cup and the MVP from each team will get a $500 scholarship.

The Thanksgiving rivalry, which usually takes place on the morning of Thanksgiving Day, has gone on for 80 years. All photos by Doreen Sarcone, reporting live from Foley Field.

I'll be visiting two cemeteries to pay tribute to two men with whom I served in Nam, and I'm really surprised the Baristas didn't include such a visitation as something specific to do this coming weekend. Since such remembrance is traditionally the true purpose of Memorial (or "Decoration") Day.
