Our 4th annual Neighborhood Day

Our Neighborhood Day held yesterday, Saturday, September 19th was a great success. I will not be able to do justice to a full report, and hope Lisa and Shauna will be able to round out the details over the next few days. We have lots of people to thank and acknowledge. I'll just give this initial report to say we think it went off very well; we estimate between 150-200 people were present for the fun and games, and chance to celebrate the neighborhood and our support of the neighborhood families. There were games and little prizes, food, informational booths and an inflatable slide. The staff involved worked really hard to make this a success and were rightfully tired by the end of the afternoon. The NJROTC cadets who have volunteered all the years, are such a great group, and provide such a morale boost, as they pitch in so willingly to do all the carnival games and tasks. I hope to be able to post some pictures over the next few days.
