The history of Audubon Park goes back to the beginning of the second World War. The town was called Audubon Village and was part of the Borough of Audubon. Workers for the New York Shipbuilding Corp, located in Camden, NJ needed housing for their families.
Letter From The MAYOR
June 19, 2024
Dear Residents:
I would personally like to thank everyone who took the time to attend one of my round table meetings. I was overwhelmingly humbled by the turnout. I’ve always known that all residents want an open and honest conversation with their elected officials, whether it’s good news or bad news. I hope that everyone came away with a good perspective on how their government operates.
As always, I’m proud to serve as your Mayor. I hope everyone has a happy and safe summer and I look forward to seeing you at National Night Out on Tuesday, August 6, ,2024.
Sincerely,
Mayor Larry Pennock
Haddon Township & Audubon Park Senior Residents

For those who have sacrificed their lives so that we may be free -
We remember you, we honor you, we love you and we humbly thank you for your service. A simple "thank you" is not enough for all that you've endured. We pray that you live on through the loving memories shared by your family and loved ones. We pray that the strife, battles and wounds of war be calmed for eternity in God's loving grace. May you find rest at last and know that those left behind cherish your spirit, honor your commitment, send their love and will never forget your sacrifice.
Memorial Day has come to mean the beginning of summer, a time for picnics and barbecues, and a holiday to gather around the family. That happiness and freedom, however, is a product of the real cause for the holiday: the sacrifice made by men and women who have fought and died for the freedoms and liberties Americans hold dear. Memorial Day is a time to remember that the American way of life is not cheap but rather has been purchased by the lives and blood of so many who have sacrificed for us to live free and happily now.
Not only have many of our residents, past and present, served in our nation's military but our small town has played a strong role in the freedoms of our country. As many of you know this town was built to provide housing to the patriots that served and worked at the shipyard. President Ronald Reagan once said, "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."
On behalf of the Borough Council and myself, I would like to thank everyone for taking a few moments out of their busy schedules to honor our military men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in past and present wars, to protect our freedom and help to spread democracy throughout the world. We also honor our active troops who provide for our safety here and in many countries around the world. We pray for the thousands who are still missing in the wars of our country. In the military tradition; no one is left behind on the field of battle. Our nation will always be determined to account for the missing.
America has always been the reluctant warrior, but we are a nation of character, always willing to defend the weak, assist the humbled and lead the world in the pursuit of democracy and freedom. This burden has always been shouldered by the men and women in the military.
Let's remember on this day of honor, those that protect and have protected our great country, defended our freedom and made the ultimate sacrifice so that we all can live as we do today; free.
