A Blog about the Chambersburg area of Trenton NJ. The Burg we all loved and miss. If you were from the Burg I hope many of the pictures and lists and comments under them from good folks bring back some nice memories. Villa Park, Franklin Park, South Trenton, and nearby Hamilton also mentioned. Use the search box atop the blog to find schools,churches,streets,stores,bars etc that you remember. Over 4000 posts and 3000 pics. Enjoy:)
I like Hudson, my husband prefers Hamilton. Maybe because Hudson still looks like it did after the Trenton Catholic or Blue Fountain Hall dances. If you don't look in a mirror, your 16 again. Gary's son Sam opened his own DeLorenzos Tomato Pies in Robbinsville at Washington Town Center. Good as dads.
Did you know that our drummer Johnny Dicepalo went on to play with Jay & the Americans and then was the first drummer for Steely Dan..Becker & Fagan were also backup musicians for the Americans. John last played with Ernie White in Trenton and is now living in Florida. The leader, Bob Cairo lives in Jackson, NJ. Look at his site... http://cdbaby.com/cd/angibob
Do you remember "Whimpy" Carlisi, played sax with "The Dynamics". I used to sing with the group when Judy Volen wasn't around. Haven't heard from any of them in decades. Guess their still in drug rehab

Nobody made pizza like Delorenzos, because it wasn't pizza, it was tomato pie.
Also was site of former Swan Cafe.

Barb...our band, Bob Cairo & the Galaxies opened the Blue Fountain (Bijou Theater) and we played there on weekends for a long time.
Wow...I remember, I used to dance to your music with Chipper Donovan, along with every other girl in Trenton.

Only "Pizza" place in the world listed in ZAGATS. Best tomato pie in the world...nothing's even close.
