Town Council Meeting, Music Fest This Week

You'd think that, at the start of August, it might be fairly quiet around Montclair. But in this town there's always something going on!

1) The Township Council meets Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. to discuss liquor licenses, South Park Street, dissolving the Montclair Parking Authority, and various other matters. See the full agenda here.

2) New Township Councilor Bill Hurlock holds a community meeting Thursday evening at 7:30 p.m. at the Bellevue Avenue Branch of the Montclair Public Library at 185 Bellevue Avenue. All are welcome to attend.

3) The Montclair High School continues its re-registration of incoming ninth graders. For more information, go here.

4) The Church Street Summer Music Festival, sponsored by Tapastry
Restaurant, proudly presents ZARA PHILLIPS and her band on the corner
of Church Street and Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair on Thursday evening from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.

5) The Montclair Public Library hosts T'ai chi and Tea on Tuesday at 10:15 a.m. T'ai chi ch'uan is an ancient Chinese martial and healing art. Each Tuesday class begins with a warm-up session designed to limber up the body and promote flexibility of all connective tissue, and includes Chi Gung (Energy Arts) exercises. $3-$5 free per class. Scholarship available. After each class, enjoy a cup of healthy and delicious tea. Tea specialist and Terra owner Grace Grund will share a different variety each week and educate participants about that tea. Taught by Donald Madson, certified by the Kung Fu Academy of New Jersey.
