Mayor Small explained the reason behind honoring the cast, stating, “Because in the last 15 years, this group has made New Jersey proud with strength, perseverance, family values, gym, tan, laundry.”
It’s clear that the Mayor recognizes the impact the show has had on the city, as the spin-off “Family Vacation” recently filmed in Atlantic City. The “JS” cast is overjoyed that their legacy will now be forever celebrated in a place that is so special to them. Congratulations!
