The New Jersey State Troopers Mounting Unit visited Graycewyngs on Dec. 6 before participating in the Downtown Christmas Parade. The barn behind Graycewyngs stabled New Jersey State Trooper horses from 1922-1933, which started with 10 horses. Later the state police moved their horses to Hotel Raleigh on Egg Harbor Road. Recently, the New Jersey State Troopers received three new horses donated from the Lancaster Police Department. They visited Hammonton to recreate an old photo and show off the new horses.
