In Bayonne, the rainbow stripes of the LGBTQ+ Pride flag were raised above City Hall on June 7 to celebrate Pride Month.
Pride Month is celebrated each year in June, commemorating the anniversary of the Stonewall riots in 1969, which kick-started the movement for LGBTQ+ equality.
However, Bayonne typically celebrates LGBTQ+ Pride in August, in conjunction with Jersey City’s Pride Festival as well as other events in Hoboken and across Hudson County.
Last year, city was looking into holding its annual ceremonial raising of the Pride flag in August, but did not due to pandemic complications. Since 2018, the city has held a Pride flag raising at City Hall in conjunction with the Hudson Pride Center.

Good Monday morning!
Friday was a big news day: The AP dropped a story on Rep. Tom Malinoski s stock trades, and NJ Advance Media reported that Gov. Murphy today will announce the date he’ll lift the mask mandate. You’ve probably read those articles by now, and they’re included below, but I’ll use this space to talk about something you may have missed.

Now that Hudson County officials have broken ground on The View at Lincoln Park construction on the multi-million-dollar project will begin this month.
The new dining and catering facility, on the southeastern side of Lincoln Park, replaces the former Casino in the Park which opened in 1950 and closed in 2017.
Envisioned and used as a clubhouse for the tennis courts, and then a summer museum, the Casino in the Park has been used for thousands of political events and wedding celebrations.
In 1963, Frank Sinatra attended his parents’ 50th wedding anniversary celebration at Casino in the Park. In 1991, the Hudson County Democratic Organization hosted then Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton.
