I found this forum, which has alot of people who have great memories of Clementon. Check it out! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It is inappropriate to post a link on this site inviting people to join and participate in another message forum. This site and these message forums are specifically for ORHS Alumni. 

Well, given all the work you did to get this board up and running, that seems fair and reasonable.

What we should all be doing is gathering up all those people on other boards and facebook and classmates.com and bringing them here (home).

This is actually perfect because you not only have the forum but the profiles -- we know who everyone is here.   I don't know why it was so hard getting people to come, but now that they are we should get more to keep it interesting.

Tell everyone you know to get their cyber selves over here and put in a beefy profile (with photos) so we can all walk back down memory lane together.

By Main street are you talking about Clementon  Road by Clementon Park? I remember these stores:

Fritsches Drug store,

The Bakery that was a storefront of a home that I think is now boarded up( my dad used to take me there as a little girl and the owner would always give me a cookie

A gas station on the right side going towards Blackwood (maybe a Sunoco or Mobile)

a billiards hall next to some  bar that I used to go to on dates

A bank on the same side as the Park that was hard to get in and out of and I almosty had alot of accidents there

Chris Mascioli's house was an old storefront down across from Mitchells Tavern(if it is still Mitchells?) there was( and I think there still is)  an old auto dump there.

Maybe an Ace hardware or plumbing store

I will ask my mom for the rest of the stores because I have not been tsown there for awhile and it is now all built up instead of the woods I remember.She would remember because they would drive down from US Ave just to shop at Frtisches drug store.

Yes, isn't that the dog who would walk the bank deposits to the bank by it self... Arlene Heinrich Ruble,  and I lived up the street on Lincoln Avenue from Pete's Cigar store... one of my favorite places when I was a kid, and I would always stoop Gus on his way to work and talk to him, he was a nice person, but I always wondered why the grown-ups where still in the store after we kids left... well I found out when I grew up... he was a bookie... and Grubers.... I use to play with Diane when we were little before she passed away.. 

Hi June the Little School also was where the Towers are now... Arlene

They made me not like the dentist..... Arlene

Don't forget Dr. Norman LaBove on Gibbsboro Rd and his nurse, Miss Lucky. He used to scare me as a child, because of his height. No matter what the ailment, he always dispensed his special "red medicine" in a bottle.

My grandmother held him in such high regard she named my youngest uncle after him..and till this day he has been always called "Doc", for short.

Hi Arlene, you're right, I forgot about the little school...

Also on Erial Road at the bottom of the hill was Young's Produce Stand.

Cathy,  I didn't forget to share the postcards, been busy, but hope to get to that real soon.  As a matter of fact I went to a postcard show this past Saturday near Washington Crossing State Park and found 2 matchbook covers, one for Richards Real Estate and one for Park Grille and 2 Pine Hill postcards which is unusual...I was very happy.

Wow-you all brought back so many memories from the old Clementon from when I was a kid. I remember the sweet shop, and the movies. I remember going with my Dad to Myzines Hardware-he had everything. I also remenber Moonie up by the pool hall, the cleaners, the little school, WT Gibbs grammer school, Grants-all things I haven't thought about in ages. Thanks for all the memories. I also remebr Dr Davies the dentist on top of the firehouse-hated to go there. but after my Mom would take me to the 5&10 next door, and oh, howabout the bakery?

Take care
