Campbell’s Field is one of the country’s finest minor league baseball facilities. The 6,400 seat stadium was honored as \”Ballpark of the Year\” in 2003 by Digitalballparks.com, and in 2004 by Baseball America. The stadium offers unbeatable views of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge and the Philadelphia skyline and is instantly recognizable by the 60-foot lighted, iconic, Campbell’s sign that is visible from the Pennsylvania side of the river and the Ben Franklin Bridge.

The Camden Riversharks play in the independent Atlantic League of Professional Baseball. They will take on the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs in their 2009 home opener, which is scheduled for 7:05 P.M. on Friday, May 1st. To purchase tickets or for more information, visit www.riversharks.com or call 1-866-SHARKS-9.

An Abbott district alternative: Character education and parental involvement

NJVoices Guest blog.

In my teaching career, I taught in two Abbott Districts: Plainfield High School and Orange Middle School. The challenges within these and other Abbott Districts are beyond a simple remedy of who to blame. But if we calculate the dollars spent per students versus the results, we have the educational equivalent to AIG and other financial conglomerates. The fight is always about the money needed to fix these schools.
