New legislation could revive NJ town's Groundhog Day traditions
MILLTOWN, N.J. (PIX11) - In Milltown, a Middlesex County borough of 7,000 people, nothing has been the same since losing a beloved groundhog that was the star of the Town's signature annual celebration that drew thousands.
"It's taken a life of its own," said Assemblyman Sterley Stanley (D-NJ 18th District). "Milltown Mel was followed worldwide."
What does Punxsutawney Phil do the rest of the year?
When Milltown Mel passed away in 2021, the search began for another groundhog to carry the torch.
