The 2019 Passaic County boys lacrosse championship game between Wayne Hills and Wayne Valley seemed to set the table perfectly for the 2020 Passaic County Tournament. Hills (18-2) defeated Valley (11-8) in hard-fought contest, 6-4.

Perhaps, they could also meet up in the 2020 State Tournament and perhaps they could both field the best teams in their histories.

In the darkest days of the COVID pandemic last spring, Holy Name Medical Center kept its employees’ spirits up by bringing in hairdressers and barbers. The staff had no time for appointments, and the shops were closed, so why not help everyone feel a little better?
The Teaneck hospital also did its staff’s laundry, partly so they wouldn’t have to wear dirty scrubs home, but also to ease their stress. It set up a “Zen den,” an oasis of calm as COVID-19 cases surged from none to 251 in seven weeks, with 45 patients on ventilators.
When the clouds sometimes parted and a COVID-19 patient was discharged, Felicia Temple a finalist on “The Voice” who also happened to be a Holy Name nurse sang Andra Day’s song “Rise Up” over the loudspeaker.

Anderson is the president and chief executive officer of the New Jersey Redevelopment Authority the first and only African-American woman in the nation to lead an independent redevelopment financing agency, and thanks to her effectiveness she has been reappointed to this position by four consecutive governors. Since Anderson took over more than a decade ago, the authority has leveraged nearly $4 billion in new investments – including about $500 million in direct investments – in some of the state’s most economically distressed communities. That funding has been vital to redevelopment efforts around New Jersey, with the authority claiming credit for 15,000 new housing units and more than 10 million square feet of commercial and retail space. And the authority is now poised to play a significant role in the Opportunity Zone program.
