Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, which is a holiday that is about sharing a meal with family and friends and reflecting on all the blessings that we have in our lives. This Thanksgiving as 2007 draws to a close, Hunterdon Hispanos is thankful to have been able to serve you, the Latino residents of Hunterdon county, during the past year. Last night we were happy to be able to provide warm winter clothing to 150 people in Flemington and, the week before, to more than 50 people in Lambertville and a dozen more in Clinton prior to that. We are especially thankful to the many community partners who made this possible--namely, North Hunterdon Rotary, EMBARQ, North Hunterdon Interact Club, Clinton Public Schools, Merck Pharmaceuticals, Immaculate Conception Church, Grace United Church of Christ, Clinton Presbyterian, St. John the Evangelist, the Phi Theta Kappa club at RVCC, Ron and Martha Suber, Aida Ramirez, Teli Reyes, Ken and Flor Sanchez, and the many members of the public who individually donated coats or lent a hand as volunteers posting flyers and generally helping out. Although our initial goal was to collect coats, we ended up building bridges, bridges that we hope will carry us towards a future of further collaboration together to serve this wonderful community that we are all a part of here in Hunterdon County. To those of you who participated in this project, we would like to you know that tomorrow, on Thanksgiving day, 200 or so of your neighbors will have a warm coat and, just as important, the warm feeling of knowing that somebody cares. Thank you from Hunterdon Hispanos and from each of us warm wishes for the holiday season.  |

Please join us this Saturday, October 29th at Spruce Run for the Spina Bifida Stroll-n-Roll. Spina Bifida affects Latinos at a significantly higher rate than the overall population, so come on out and learn how you can reduce the risk by making some simple dietary changes. It will be a beautiful fall day in the outdoors with lots to do--cooking demonstrations, music and game for the kids and, of course, the opportunity to help out with a really important cause.
NEW CITIZENSHIP TESTS
(Thank you Steve Melo for submitting this)
UCIS publicly introduced the redesigned naturalization test yesterday
and will start using it on October 1, 2008. However, depending on when one applies/is scheduled for the
test, the old test may still be used through October 1, 2009. After October 1, 2009 all applicants
will be required to take the redesigned version. The USCIS url relating to the redesigned test is below. At the bottom of that page there are
several additional urls linking to FAQs, an informational brochure, the revised
100 questions, vocab review lists and a document which highlights changes to
the test.
