BLOOMFIELD, NJ — For the past few months, Brookdale Reformed Church in Bloomfield has held a get-together at the Good News Cafe, the church’s meeting room. At the April get-together, the Bloomfield High School string orchestra performed. On May 14, the BHS jazz band, directed by Natalie Kerr, entertained the crowd. Also, four poets — Ted Glick, Maude Carolan Pych, James Keane and Barbara R. Williams-Hubbard — read their poems aloud. Refreshments were provided by the cafe staff.
