On 2010, it was Sunday, December 26th 1-4pm. Local residents won't want to miss this annual opportunity to show off our town's treasured historic site to their visiting guests. This year the Grover Cleveland Birthplace will host their 11th annual Boxing Day Holiday Open House complete with a free souvenir boxed piece of fruit cake to take home after your visit. The Garden Club of the Caldwells has decorated the house in a festive old-fashioned holiday theme. Also featuring recorded music of the era.
The event is sponsored by the Grover Cleveland Birthplace Memorial Association, the New Jersey State Park Service volunteers, and the Birthplace staff. Also for last minute shoppers, we have museum-quality stocking stuffers for all ages at "Grover's Corner Shop". Conni Murray has been working harder than an elf on Christmas Eve hunting down outstanding items. The shop is well stocked with everything from tie-tacs and baseball caps featuring the Presidential Seal, clever t-shirts, playing cards, wooden toys, tree ornaments from the White House Historical Association, and more.
