History of the Prince Charming Regal Carousel

~~Some day my prince will come…Some day I’ll find my love…And how thrilling that moment will be…When the prince of my dreams comes to me~~

The Prince Charming Regal Carousel located in Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland was originally built by Italian woodcarvers in 1917 and featured at Olympic Park in Maplewood, New Jersey. When Disney acquired it, imagineers refurbished the 90 horses so that no two are exactly alike. Eighteen hand- painted scenes that tell the story of Cinderella were added onto the wooden canopy that covers the carousel.

Announcing Morris County PRIDE Drive-In Drag Show

MORRIS COUNTY, NJ. –– Morris County PRIDE presents Morris County’s first ever Drive-In Drag Show on Saturday, September 12, 2020 at 8pm. The event, facilitated by Boxcar, will take place in Madison, NJ and allow for a socially-distanced night of pride, performance, education, and community building. Tickets will go on sale in mid-August.


Morris County PRIDE was planned in an an effort to help combat stigma and discrimination faced by the LGBTQ+ community in the county. While the original plan for 2020 included an all-day festival, the pandemic forced organizers to pivot this summer. “It is important in these times to continue to bring the community together responsibly,” says lead organizer Cara
Parmigiani of Morris Plains. Instead, the all-volunteer committee started thinking up ways to capture the spirit of PRIDE in a safe, socially-distanced way.

The Drive-In Drag Show will feature a line-up of talent that will dazzle the audience and get everyone dancing in their cars. To make things even more festive, attendees will be encouraged to decorate their cars to win a unique, one-of-a-kind, drag-themed trophy being created exclusively for the event.

Each car will also leave with a goody bag full of fun swag and educational material provided by the shows sponsors.

While the list of community groups and sponsors supporting Morris County PRIDE continues to grow, the current roster includes EDGE NJ, the Law Office of Cara A. Parmigiani, LLC, Electric Love Studios, Moms Demand Action, Gay Activist Alliance of Morris County, TriVersity Center for Gender and Sexual Diversity, and Argentino Fiore Law & Advocacy, LLC.

Tickets for the Morris County PRIDE Drive-In Drag Show will go on sale in mid-August.

“We’re expecting them to go fast,” says Sean Dorsa of EDGE NJ, one of PRIDE’s lead organizers. To make sure you get a coveted ticket, be sure to follow Morris County PRIDE on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MCPRIDE2020/.

Seven #MorrisCty Towns Named in Top 100 Safest Communities in the Nation

Posted Tuesday, July 28th, 2020

A host of towns across Morris County have been named as some of the safest places to live and work in the nation, ranked in the top 100 safest communities in an annual national security review unveiled this week.

Seven Morris Towns Named in Top 100 Safest Communities in the Nation

The SafeWise report listed six Morris County towns among the top 50 safest places to live in the U.S., and seven in the top 100 Safest Cities in America. Morris County had the most New Jersey counties in the top 100 list.

Towns include:

  • #12 Mount Olive Township
  • #24 Washington Township
  • #28 Jefferson Township
  • #33 Randolph Township
  • #40 Roxbury Township
  • #46 Denville Township
  • #69 Morris Township

Some border towns in neighboring counties also made the list,  including Berkeley Heights, Bernards and Warren townships, based on their populations and reports of violent and non-violent crimes.

“This is just another example of why Morris County is the Number One County in New Jersey,” said Freeholder John Krickus, who lives in Washington Township (#24 on the list). “Safety is part of the high quality of life that our residents and people who work and visit can expect here in Morris County.”

By analyzing 2018 FBI crime reporting statistics and population data, security experts at safewise.com compiled their Safest Cities list. According to their reporting, for the second year running, New Jersey stands out with over 25 percent of the the top 100 list. Bergenfield, in Bergen County, was ranked Number 5.“This is an opportunity to recognize police officers, city officials, and neighborhood watch leaders for their efforts. It’s a great chance to shine a light on a municipalities continuing commitment to public safety,” said Safewise Communications Manager Sage Singleton.

SafeWise has been conducting a comprehensive study of safety in the U.S. and putting out an annual ranking for six years.
