August 22, 2015: Rum River and the ‘Baywalk Empire’: How Down Jersey Dodged Prohibition from Bridgeton to the Bayshore

An afternoon bus tour for Cohansey Riverfest 2015

August 22, 2015
2 pm.

We’ll cover as much local geography as we can, both sides of the river, from Bayside to Seabreeze (Caviar), Bridgeton to Greenwich, and back, telling stories, evoking famous locals, revisiting infamous spots, taking a unique, entertaining and educational look at why this crazy beautiful river made bootlegging so easy and fighting it so tough.
