100 Years Of Community Fun and Togetherness - Raritan Opera House

How a community stays close-knit thoughout a century became evident Saturday night when the Raritan Opera House took center stage and its walls talked of experiences it has hosted during its 100 years.

Using Jeannie Boyd as its spokesperson, Raritan Opera House told of the joy shared, the clubs and meetings, the holiday Christmases, the blood drives, box socials, dances, and patriotic cermonies to honor veterans. Also, the love and care given the Opera House tells of the respect that Raritan people have for their heritage in order that it can continue on.
