“My husband passed away last year. A friend who had just joined The Ridgewood Woman’s Club encouraged me to go to a RWC lunch/ meeting to see if I might like to join also… which I did.This group of special, intelligent and caring women were so welcoming to me. I then joined and have not regretted it!
The Ridgewood Woman's Club is an exceptional woman’s club with a fabulous President, Pamela Swords , who gives this club her heart and soul!She is truly a gift for this club and its members! Lastly, but most importantly, The Ridgewood Woman’s Club does so many wonderful and charitable things but also leaving time for the members to do some fun activities together also!”

Whether I’m stopping by their annual farmers market- which has a ton of great vendors with food, decorations, and all kinds of cute stuff, or hanging out at their summer events with live music, drinks, and a chance to wander around the farm and see the animals, it’s just always fun. Overall, such an awesome spot, and I’m really glad Clifton has it!”
“The Park St Y is clean, well organized, equipment is new and there’s a great selection, the staff is always visible and friendly, and there are a host of classes available. Great YMCA!!!!”

“Went on two Friday walks this year. Had Mary as a guide both times. Her knowledge of the birds, bird calls and plant life was extensive. It’s a beautiful natural area and the building has just been renovated. They were planning a special Saturday on monarch butterflies when I visited. Especially enjoyed seeing northern flickers, crows and chipping sparrows and learning more about the plants and trees.”

“I have adopted from this shelter twice and it is phenomenal. The way it is run by Christine Conte and the care for all the animals is the best around. These animals get the best medical care and so much love. The staff is very kind and knowledgeable. All the volunteers give the best love and care to the animals and work so hard to get them all adopted. The cats I adopted from them you could say were rescued but I was the one that was really saved. All absolute loves of my life. So much happiness and joy this shelter has given me and I would always think of them first when adopting, THE BEST IN RESCUE!??❤️”
“A great little shop with very fair prices. They only take cash FYI and I wish they would give receipts... It's the only downside to this obviously lovingly presented shop”
“I have been wanting to visit this thrift store.....and WOW! It's a small train depot...very quaint and the prices are extremely reasonable for name brands. Proceeds go to the local schools. Let's assist them in their humble goal! Cannot wait to go back!!!”

“As a medical transportation driver, I’m constantly going in and out of healthcare facilities across North Jersey. I see how front desks operate every single day, and I can honestly say that Amelia Maffei, Susan Bazoqa, and Jacalyn O’Brien are exceptional.
They are professional, organized, and incredibly welcoming. No matter how busy it gets, they stay calm, respectful, and attentive. They treat patients, families, and transportation staff with kindness and dignity. That kind of consistency is rare.
What stands out most is their attitude. They don’t just “do their job” — they create a warm and positive atmosphere from the moment you walk in. For patients who may already be stressed or not feeling well, that first interaction truly matters.
Christian Health is fortunate to have Amelia, Susan, and Jacalyn representing the front desk. They make a real difference every single day.
Thank you very much for everything you do to help lady's!”
“These folks are doing incredible work caring for the community. Do yourself a favor...round up a food donation, take it over to CUMAC and ask for a tour, you'll have a remarkable experience. I went for the first time 5 months ago and I've been dropping by at least once a month ever since. Let me know if you do the same!”
“I could not more highly recommend their guided kayak tours (especially the full moon ones, which we did!). Team is amazing, so caring, enjoyable and knowledgable. And the natural setting/views are simply gorgeous—and a study in contrasts! (Soaring blue herons and egrets, incredible reeds and marsh life, yet with I95 just off in the distance and one train track overhead)! Do not miss the opp to see this ecosystem through Hackensack Riverkeepers’ eyes. A must do.”

“Capturing Caroline and Tyler's wedding at The Union Club Of The City Of New York was an absolute pleasure and a highlight of my career as a wedding filmmaker. From the moment I stepped into this iconic venue, I knew the day was going to be something special. And I wasn't disappointed.The elegance and charm of The Union Club provided the perfect backdrop for Caroline and Tyler's celebration. Every room tells a story, and the rich history of the venue added a unique character to the film that you just can't replicate elsewhere. The lighting, the architecture, and the overall ambiance were a cinematographer's dream, allowing me to capture stunning visuals without the need for many adjustments.What truly set The Union Club apart, however, was the staff. Their professionalism, attentiveness, and willingness to accommodate made not only the couple's day run smoothly but also significantly aided in my filmmaking process. They were always on hand to assist, ensuring that every part of the venue was accessible and ready for filming. Their coordination with my team allowed us to capture the day without any hitches, making our work not just easier but more enjoyable.I cannot recommend The Union Club Of The City Of New York enough to couples searching for a wedding venue that offers both visual splendor and top-notch service. My experience filming at this venue was nothing short of fantastic, thanks to its stunning setting and the invaluable support of the staff. If you're looking for a venue that will leave a lasting impression on you and your guests, and make for an unforgettable wedding film, The Union Club should be at the top of your list.”
“Almost each day there are new & interesting items to choose from. There is much to look at, take your time walking through the store, you may miss a gem. Friendly & helpful staff. Worth the trip.”
“We took the iconic spots in central park tour with Juan on a dry winter Saturday. Absolutely fantastic, I would recommend this tour to anyone. We were given headphones so we could easily hear no matter if there was a performer or just if we fell to the back of the crowd. Juan was an amazing guide. Please take this tour!”
“They have a food bank 3 times a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. (Check during holidays though). They are very friendly, and I love volunteering here when I'm able. They have a church service on Sunday, and other activities during the week including after school club. Everyone is compassionate in how they serve, and I'm glad they're here helping the community.”
“We obviously love it! We fantasize, we want to push open the doors to see Sigournay Weaver getting ready or the soul of Brando. Marylin or James Dean give us the message of their acting secrets!”
“Give chances is an excellent establishment in which students collaborate, learn, and overall just have a great time. Not only is it the perfect opportunity for kids to socialize, but it also allows for an excellent learning experience.”
