As part of our nation's 250th anniversary celebration this year, the Cultural & Heritage Commission will be hosting two historic trolley tours on Saturday, June 27 in conjunction with our town's Spark in the Park celebration. Tours will leave at 5 pm and 7 pm from Immaculate Conception Church and will take you on a guided tour through the town of Spotswood, highlighting its long history including the role it played during the Revolutionary War. There is no pre-registration; seating is done on a first-come, first-served basis. We hope to see you there!

Images of America: Spotswood features a century's worth of photographs and stories about the town, which has grown from a summer resort area to a thriving World War II-era commercial center to the modern bedroom community that it is today. Included are views of historic tobacco mills and the 1890s Carriage House, which still stands today. Vintage photographs of early people and industries are seen, along with the borough's first school-a 1901 four-room building that became the Margaretta M. Birchall School, which closed its doors in 1979.
