MORRIS COUNTY, NJ — The 200 Club of Morris County took in 45 new members at a recent recruitment event at Jersey Girl Brewing in Mount Olive.

“We will continue to grow our community so we can give back to all the police officers, firefighters and EMS personnel that sacrifice themselves for us," Rizzo said.

Since 1971, The 200 Club of Morris Count has given more than $5,000,000 to first
responder families, either in the form of death benefits and dependent awards when a first
responder dies in the line of duty, or college scholarships to high school seniors who are part of a
first responder family.
