“History of Egg Harbor City’s Sanitorium: The Neutral Water Health Resort”

Presented by Dick Colby, Volunteer Curator of the Egg Harbor City Historical Society’s Roundhouse Museum.

Discover the fascinating history of Egg Harbor City’s Sanitorium, the “Neutral Water Health Resort,” which operated between 1902 and 1923. Under the direction of Dr. Smith, the sanitorium attracted visitors seeking the curative properties of the cedar waters of Landing Creek. This presentation will explore how such water-immersion health resorts, popular in southern Germany and southeastern Europe, found a home in southern New Jersey. Join us as we delve into the cultural and medical significance of this unique institution and its place in local history.

Our speaker, Dick Colby, is the Volunteer Curator for the Egg Harbor City Historical Society’s Roundhouse Museum. A passionate researcher, Colby brings Southern New Jersey’s rich history to life through his presentations, including this fascinating story of Egg Harbor City’s Sanitorium.

Hammonton Police Department Rx Take Back Day
2025-02-10 10:00 - 14:00 | Hammonton Town Hall
The Hammonton Police Department will be hosting a Rx Take Back Day on Monday, Feb. 10th, 2025 from 10 a.m to 2 p.m.

Residents will have the opportunity to safely dispose of medications they have on hand that are expired, unused or unnecessary at the Hammonton Police Department, located at 100 Central Ave.

Unused or expired medications sitting around the house can easily become dangerous — especially in homes with young children, teenagers or elderly family members. It’s crucial to take action and remove those risks. Medications can be a source of accidental poisoning for kids or a temptation for teens experimenting with drugs. Adults and seniors also face the danger of confusing medications or taking ones that are no longer necessary.
