Jackson Alumni Hall of Fame inductees honored

This year the Jackson Alumni Hall of Fame will induct three people into the Hall of Fame on Oct. 3. They are: James R. Johnson, posthumously, a lifelong Jackson resident and community volunteer; Bernie Reider, former principal, athletic director, coach and teacher at Jackson Memorial High School; and Paul Tarantino, a 1976 graduate and local businessman who gives back to his community.

The Jackson Alumni Hall of Fame, a nonprofit corporation, was founded in 1991. The organization honors and recognizes those people who have made a significant contribution to the community of Jackson, and it offers scholarships to those graduating seniors of Jackson Memorial High School who have exhibited both academic excellence and a commitment to their community.

The induction ceremony will take place at Rova Farms, Jackson.

Tickets are available by calling (732) 833-4605.
