Township of Stafford, 2024 Healthy Town 

For the second year in a row, the Township of Stafford has been designated a Healthy Town. New this year, in partnership with the National Fitness Campaign, the Township built an adult fitness center for residents, enhancing access to physical health opportunities in the community. 

“I am so thrilled for the Township of Stafford to be recognized again by the Quality Institute as a 2024 Healthy Town," said Mayor Robert Henken. “We recognize that health is a way of life. This past year, we were fortunate to receive grant funding to install an adult fitness center at Nautilus Park. This coincides with the start of the Stafford Pathfinders program, started by our MWC volunteers, to form a walking group in the Township. This was part of our MWC this past year and partially funded by the National Fitness Campaign and Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey. Working with our community partners, we will continue to strive to provide new programs and events for all our residents to empower them to improve their health. Thank you to the MWC staff, the Committee and the Township staff for making this a possibility."
