Holmdel Historical Society Holiday Meeting, Potluck Dinner Tuesday Night

Holmdel, NJ - The Holmdel Historical Society will hosts its 2016 holiday meeting and potluck dinner Tuesday, Dec. 13.

The dinner starts at 5:30 p.m. at the Holmdel Community United Church of Christ (40 Main St.), one of the township’s oldest landmarks.
