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:)

Great pic. I can feel the hot sand and the hot sun and hear the ocean. Life just goes too fast.
Hi Cathy:)
Thank You.
I remember a few of the attractions' names in my day..
The Jet Star (Roller Caoster)
The Rotor
The Spider
The Swiss-Bob
Lucky Leos on the boardwalk had
a big room with a bunch of bowling
type games. I forget what the
game was called.
If we were not at Seaside we might
be at Metedeconk which was also
very popular with Trenton area
folks.
Hi Mack: When I was about 14 years old they put me in jail in Seaside for putting on my swim trunks in the car. Most people did that in stead of renting a locker in those days. On that particular day, half the guys from the Burg were caught. My mother was worried that I would miss taking final exams in school. My brother Lou was friendly with Jim Tallon who was an accoutant on Hamiton Ave. Jim was some kind of offical in Seaside and managed to get me out. I think there was a fine for dressing in the car, but during the depression, most people did.
