VERNON — The Huddle Shuttle arrives at Heaven Hill Farm Monday as part of its whirlwind tour of the New Jersey/New York metropolitan area.

Inside a brightly decorated trailer were displays celebrating the area’s Giants and Jets football teams. Also prominent in the display were memorabilia of legendary coach Vince Lombardi and his theme, “There’s only one way to succeed in anything, and that is to give it everything.”

Around the trailer were a variety of games, agility motion simulators, and a football-themed obstacle course.
