Lively Claremont Towers in July

Even though many things are still affected by COVID-19, such as Hillsborough’s 4th of July Fireworks (along with most NJ counties) (2), there are many things to get out and do throughout the township.
Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic
As the prevailing story of the 2020 pandemic continues, approximating its way to summer days, residents in the township of Hillsborough continue taking preventive measures to minimize the risk of contracting or spreading COVID-19.
