The Maplewood Chamber of Commerce will hold its Annual Distinguished Service Award Dinner on Thursday, September 17, 2015 at the Maplewood Country Club starting at 6:30 pm. This year’s honoree is Jim Buchanan.
Jim has been a Maplewood resident since childhood. He was a 1960 Columbia High School graduate and after studies at Montclair State College began a 34-year career in Music Education in both Bloomfield, NJ and Caldwell-West Caldwell Public Schools.
Jim became more active in the Community after retiring from teaching in 1997. Jim served as Music Director/Conductor for Youth Orchestras of Essex County from 1983-2003 and as Maplewood’s Cultural Affairs Supervisor from 2001-2006. He enjoys volunteering with Hilton Neighborhood Association, 1978 Arts Center, Maplewood Community Music (co-founder), MapleWoodstock, Maplewood Pool Concert Series, and various other music and arts production events.
