Craigmeur Recreation Complex, at 1175 Green Pond Road in Rockaway Township, is a Morris County Park Commission facility with a large pavilion and open grounds that make it a comfortable spot for a late-summer gathering.
The annual event gives Rockaway Township seniors a chance to share a midday meal, catch up with neighbors, and stay connected with the community. Because planning depends on a headcount, township officials encourage seniors to call ahead before the August 28 deadline.
