Cherry Hill launches summer camp program for residents aged 55 and older.

In a significant lifestyle transition, Fred and Barbara Zucker, who spent half a century in their family home, chose to downsize and relocate to an over-55 community in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Their search culminated in 2020 when they discovered a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment at the Plaza Grande, a community they liken to a vibrant “summer camp.” The couple fell in love with the spacious unit, which features a den complete with a balcony and adequate closet space for Barbara’s extensive shoe collection. The Plaza Grande comprises 507 units spread across 16 buildings, offering various amenities such as an outdoor pool, a golf simulator, and convenient access to local restaurants and shops.

This week, Cherry Hill also celebrated a notable accolade in the arts community as resident cartoonist Mark Tatulli won the prestigious Reuben Award, the highest honor in cartooning. Known for his long-running comic strips “Liō” and “Heart of the City,” Tatulli’s victory marks his 13th consecutive nomination for this esteemed recognition. A native of Willingboro and a current resident of Pitman, Tatulli has garnered accolades that include three Emmy Awards and international syndication. His tenacity has finally earned him acknowledgment as the 2025 Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year by the National Cartoonists Society, recognizing his consistent contribution to the field over the last decade and beyond.

In health news, Inspira Medical Center Mullica Hill has announced the expansion of its maternity unit, doubling its size as part of a broader 7 million expansion project. This significant upgrade includes the addition of a five-level surgery tower, enhanced intensive care facilities, and expanded parking, further improving medical services in the region.

Additionally, it was reported that HelloFresh, the meal kit service, is set to close its Logan Township distribution center, resulting in the loss of nearly 400 jobs by the end of September. Meanwhile, in Vineland, the planning board approved the second phase of a 300-megawatt data center, expected to be completed by November. Other developments include a commercial project in Washington Township that will introduce a new Turnersville Kia and America’s Tire alongside a Hertz rental facility.

These updates illustrate a period of transition and development in South Jersey, marked by both personal lifestyle choices and broader changes within the community.
