It’s New to Us by Jean Stratton



RAISE THE ROOF: “We have been named one of the top 100 roofers in the U.S. by Roofing, Siding, Installation Magazine for the past three years. We are pleased to offer our quality work in Princeton.” Ron Hall, project manager for Russell Roofing, looks forward to even more Princeton projects.

A Family Business Comes to Princeton: Russell Roofing Offers Top Quality

A roof over your head — that’s about as important as it gets. And when you consider this very significant investment, you certainly don’t want one that leaks, or will not withstand the elements over time.

Russell Roofing, known for high quality and workmanship, has recently been taking on many more projects in Princeton and the area. “Princeton is a great market for us,” says project manager Ron Hall. “We specialize in historic roof restoration, including slate, tile, and copper, as well as bread and butter asphalt. The reason we’re here in Princeton is that the type of customer in Princeton is a match with the kind of company we are.”


CREATIVE COOKING: “I love the creativity of cooking. I love trying things out, new cooking experiences, and I want to introduce customers to our new special events dining experience.” Elizabeth Hunt, chef-owner of the Lawrenceville Inn, is shown preparing for work in the inn’s kitchen.

Lawrenceville Inn Offers Variety of Special Events Dining Experiences

Elizabeth Hunt loves to cook, and she loves to see people enjoying what she has created. As chef-owner of the Lawrenceville Inn, she is excited about the new format the inn introduced last October.

“We have shifted from a traditional restaurant to special events dining,” she explains. “This includes prix fixe dinners, private parties, corporate events, and family gatherings. Our goal is to create a culinary experience such as wine dinners, private catering, and food classes. We’ll have Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, graduations, and such events as ‘Girls’ Night Out, with a seated massage and manicure, as well as dinner. The idea of a theme is fun.”
