The Army’s House of Magic: A History of Fort Monmouth
The Army’s House of Magic: A History of Fort Monmouth
Ocean County Historical Society Time: 2:00 PM Date: Sunday, December 15, 2024 The Army’s House of Magic: A History of Fort Monmouth, NJ with author Melissa Ziobro The history of Fort Monmouth, NJ begins in May 1917 when, as part of its wartime mobilization, the Army authorized four training camps for signal troops. One camp would be in central NJ - that which would eventually be known as "Fort Monmouth," in honor of the soldiers of the American Revolution who fought and died at the nearby Battle of Monmouth. The Army Signal Corps trained thousands of men for war there and built laboratories that worked on pioneering technologies like air to ground radio. Though the base was supposed to be temporary, it wound up outliving the war. It was for decades known as the "Home of the Signal Corps," and, until its closure in 2011, the base was still innovating some of the most significant communications and electronics advances in military history - many of which would save lives on the battlefield and be adapted for civilian use. Presented by Monmouth University Professor Melissa Ziobro, the last Command Historian of Fort Monmouth prior to the base’s closure in 2011, and author of Fort Monmouth: the Army’s House of […]

Vision Board Workshop
Vision Board Workshop
Join TMI for an evening full of visioning, glue sticks, laughter and snacks! What is a vision board?A vision board is a collage of images and words that serves as a physical representation of the goals you want to achieve and/or things you want to attract into your life. It helps keep your goals top of mind and reminds you of what you are working towards. Why make a vision board?Any theory about attracting what you want in your life will stress the importance of visioning - putting positive energy and images out into the world of what you want to see reflected back to you in your life. Ask anyone from successful athletes to high-powered CEOs and they'll tell you that visioning is a key part of their routine, whether it's imagining themselves making the perfect play or visualizing their meeting with investors going exactly how they want it to. A vision board is a great component of the visioning process as it allows you to physically look at representations of your goals and the things you want in your life, making your dreams feel more tangible than if they are just floating around in your head. What You'll […]
