Catch up on the biggest stories in Haddonfield this week.
Borough Commissioners passed a resolution to allow Boxwood Arts arts to appear before the appropriate boards, and Rev. Wayne Zschech is celebrating the 25th anniversary of his ordination vows. Catch up on everything from the past week in the Weekly Roundup.
Boxwood Arts resolution passes
At the Tuesday, June 27, commissioners’ meeting, a resolution allowing the Boxwood Arts Theatre and Cultural Center to present its development plans to the appropriate borough, county and state boards passed unanimously. For one half of the attendees in borough hall’s auditorium, this meant one step closer to bringing a theater to Haddonfield, but for those sitting in the other half of the room opposed to the project, the resolution meant another fight ahead. Under the resolution, Boxwood Arts Group has one year to get the proper authorizations from both local and state boards.
Haddonfield Religious Leaders Series: Reverend Dr. Wayne Zschech
When the Rev. Wayne Zschech, or “Pastor Wayne,” entered college, he knew he wanted to help people, and he thought studying medicine was the best way to do so. But, when it looked like medical school wasn’t going to work out, he got to thinking about other ways he could help people. While attending a Good Friday worship service, Zschech had his epiphany that he could help people another way. Today, Lutheran Church of Our Savior’s Zschech is celebrating the 25th anniversary of his ordination vows and can’t imagine being anything but a pastor.

At every Philadelphia Phillies home game, two ballgirls sit along each foul line. Numerous times during the game, a foul ball will be hit toward the stands, necessitating the ballgirl to retrieve the ball and hand it off to a fan sitting nearby. For some members of the 2017 Phillies ballgirl team, including Tiffany Savich of Marlton, Alex Perez of Cherry Hill and Haddonfield Memorial High School alum Sarah Barrett, being on the field is an exciting experience. However, all three say there is so much more to being a ballgirl.
