UNION BEACH, NJ - The call for a Merry Christmas came and OPC Union Beach responded with a team effort from members and one of their key sponsors the Colts Neck Business Association. At the last OPC meeting it was agreed that we would assist those in need with free Christmas Trees and as usual our team took it to the next level. “A tree is great, but what about stands and decorations” said Glen Dalakian an OPC member since the start. Others chimed in and the group’s founder Jim Sfayer stated with determination “We can help bring Christmas cheer to many in the community as they continue the restorations.”
With that the team took action. Jim Butler a Union Beach resident, who lost his home in the storm, began the planning to receive the trees and distribute them to those in need. Calls were made and Ed Brock of Brock Farms in Colts Neck offered to donate fresh cut trees grown in town. Tom Orgo owner of Slope Brook Farms brought in his team and trucks to cut and transport the trees. OPC tapped into the funds they have raised and purchased (at wholesale) 99 tree stands.
