Jefferson Rec plans Radio City trip

| 11 Sep 2017 | 04:36

    It’s really never too early to think about Christmas so envision riding in comfort to New York City to see the Radio City Music Hall’s Christmas Spectacular at a discounted group rate.
    You can travel with the Jefferson Township Recreation Department on Friday, Nov. 10, 2017, with some time to sightsee and eat before the 2 p.m. performance. Note that Jefferson Township schools are closed for the NJEA Convention so bring the kids.
    Christmas shines at Radio City and it begins when you walk through the doors of the storied Radio City Music Hall. You pause for a moment and stand to admire the Art Deco lobby then make your way to your seat. With a hush, slowly the curtain rises, the music swells and the Rockettes appear. Perfect, in unison they dance across the stage, mesmerizing the audience in their precision. And just like that, you are transported to another place where reindeer prance and dash through the snow, where Rag Dolls spring to life, and Wooden Soldiers march in a fantastic parade. For a time, the hustle and the bustle of the world outside disappears and you are reminded of the true meaning and spirit of the holiday season. Then, in the blink of an eye, the curtain falls and you know Christmas is here.
    Tickets are $92 per person and include reserved orchestra seating in Sections 3 and 4, transportation by deluxe motor coach, and driver gratuity. Two buses will leave the Camp Jefferson parking lot, 81 Weldon Road, Lake Hopatcong at 8:30 a.m. sharp (be ready to board the bus no later than 8:15 am) as the bus will not wait for latecomers. The buses will depart from NYC immediately after the show (approximately 3:45 p.m.).
