NJ Veterans Benefits Workshop at Brookdale Sept. 28

County and college reps will meet with local vets to inform them of services on Brookdale's Lincroft campus.

Brookdale Community College will host a Veterans Workshop at the Lincroft main campus, 765 Newman Springs Road, on September 28. The event will be held from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. in the ATEC building rooms 223 & 224. Parking is closest in lots 4 and 6.

 Organizing the event is Jerry Russell, a Brookdale operations administer and himself a U.S. Army retiree. “A variety of services will be shared,” he said.

 The Monmouth County Veterans Service Team and Brookdale Community College Health Center are coordinating to offer information on NJ Veterans benefits, Veterans administration benefits eligibility, resume review, education benefits, VOW and VRAP programs.

The Department of Veterans Affairs will be on hand to perform blood pressure screening, offer flu shots and light medical screening and register veterans for VA medical benefits.

 For more information, contact Jerry Russell at 732-224-2068 or e-mail to   jrussell@brookdalecc.edu. Information is also available from the Brookdale Community College Student Health Center Nurse, Gwendolyn Evens at 732-224-2395 or e-mail to gevens@brookdalecc.edu.

I hope these people explain all of the changes that can potentially happen if the Ryan plan goes into effect. These poor Veterans do not understand how terrible it is.

Oh, I am so glad to see that you are preserving history. My husband & I visited your town aRead More couple of weeks ago. My 9th Great Grandfather Thomas Whitlock is buried in the Old First Baptist Church yard. I was honored to stand on the porch of the home he helped build and lived in at Shoal Harbor. The name has changed to the Wilson-Seabrook House and now the Bayshore Activities Center. Wow! Too bad all the museum pieces were removed. I would love to have seen them. Maybe next trip I can see where the items moved to and help with some clean up. I would be glad to help. Ancestor of Middletown... Diana (Whitlock) Moa Broken Arrow, OK
