Havens Homestead Museum

The Brick Township Historical Society kicked off a new season at the Havens Homestead Museum on Herbertsville Road.An exhibit of old and new games was the prime attraction. Throughout the season, the museum will continue to hold events to entertain and educate the public on what life was like in the mid-1800s.Among the games on display were Chess, Parcheesi, Backgammon, and Monopoly, among others.

In the mid-1800s, there were children's games that focused mostly on luck while the adults' games focused more on logic, according to Brick Township Historical Society's current president Jane Fabach. She also said that they did not require much space.
