Brunswick seniors celebrate a golden age By JENNIFER AMATO Staff Writer n a building that is just 25 years old, there are enough memories to last 25 Ilifetimes. The South Brunswick Senior Center will highlight its 25th anniversary on Sept. 22 with a celebratory party. Betsy Sansig, 92, remembers when a celebration was held to mark the first offi­ cial day of the opening of the center in 1991. “The mayor was here. And a lot of big shots,” she said of the ribbon-cutting and luncheon to follow. Prior to the establishment of the senior center, a group of seniors would meet in the early 1980s at the municipal building to pe­ tition for a space of their own while using Crossroads Middle School, the VFW, the high school and Woodlol Park as meeting grounds. “We used to join trips. We used to go away sometimes for a week ... and book a hotel,” Sansig said. Then, with permission of the mayor and council at the time, a 10,000-square-foot structure was built for a population of 2,000 residents who were age 55 or older, with about 50 seniors coming to the center each day. A group would go door-to-door selling stickers to residents — Sansig did not re­ member what the stickers looked like — in order to buy $3,000 worth of kitchenware and dishware for the new center.

  • Springsteen, Southside and Bon Jovi Rock Bandiera's Fundraiser
    December 14, 2006 Springsteen, Southside and Bon Jovi rock Bandiera’s fundraiser BY RICHARD SKELLY, CORRESPONDENT Kudos to Brick-based singer/songwriter/guitarist Bobby Bandiera. Working with executives at the Count Basie Theatre, along with Terry Magovern, Bruce Springsteen’s longtime personal manager, Bandiera put together a very well orchestrated, properly paced concert Tuesday night at the Red Bank venue. The concert was a fundraiser for the Joan Dancy and People with ALS Support Group. Magovern was engaged to Joan Dancy, a mother of two from Middletown who died from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease. An early high point of the nearly four-hour show included “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” trumpeter Mark Pender’s jam on “Baby I Like It,” backed by “Late Night” bassist Michael Merritt, Westfield-based guitarist Glenn Alexander and trombonist/singer Richie “La Bamba” Rosenberg, also part of the “Late Night” band. Burger, Kavanaugh and Bonds Bandiera, having just put on a solid tribute to producer Phil Spector, used many of the same singers as he did for that concert, held Nov. 17 at the Count Basie. Bob Burger delivered a convincing version of “Let It Be,” accompanied by Kevin Kavanaugh on keyboards, while Gary U.S. Bonds and percussionist/singer Kenny “Popeye” Pentifallo sang a perfect version of “Pretty Little Angel Eyes.” Bandiera played some exquisite guitar on his original, “Love Keeps Messing with My Mind,” and on Neil Young’s “Like a Hurricane.” Bonds and his band took the stage and Joey
