As we remember September 11th, let’s remember the lives lost, the lives affected, and the lives forever changed.

Let’s remember the mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, friends, and coworkers who never made it home. Let’s remember the first responders who ran toward danger. Let’s remember the families who waited, the communities that mourned, and the heroes who gave everything they had.

But let’s also remember the UNITED States we were in the minutes, hours, days, weeks, and months afterward.

We stood together. We helped one another. We put aside our differences and remembered that, before anything else, we were Americans. Neighbors helped neighbors. Strangers became friends. Communities came together. Flags flew proudly, and people supported one another in ways that reminded us what this country could be.

We may not have agreed on everything, but we understood that we were stronger together. A country that stands together, works together, and looks out for one another is a country that succeeds together.

Never forget. 🇺🇸

ATTENTION, DRIVERS: THOSE SMALL HUMANS ARE RETURNING!

Tomorrow is the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, which means school buses, crossing guards, backpacks, bicycles, and children who apparently believe the crosswalk is their personal runway will once again be everywhere.

So, drivers, let’s all try something crazy this year: PAY ATTENTION & SLOW DOWN!!!!

Watch for kids near schools, crosswalks, bus stops, and residential neighborhoods.
Slow down when approaching school buses and bus stops.
Put the phone down and keep your eyes on the road.

And remember…

Those fancy flashing RED lights on the school bus mean the same thing in every state:

🛑 STOP!!! 🛑

Not “squeeze around the bus.”
Not “I’m already late for work.”
Not “I think I can make it.”
And definitely not “challenge accepted.”

STOP. YOUR. VEHICLE. That 5 point mandatory court appearance ticket will hurt!!!

The kids may not know where they’re going, but you should know where your brakes are.

Have a safe school year, everyone!

This Monday, July 20th the street sweeper will be making its way around town. The Township is mandated to have this done as per the state. It also helps to keep our town clean and looking beautiful. Unless you want your road to look like the back alleys of Philly, please move your cars, trucks, boats, hot rods, campers, project cars, mopeds and whatever wheeled contraption you might have in the road.

We’d also like to remind everyone that the sweeper driver is a self-proclaimed amateur Nascar driver who firmly believes every curb is just part of the track. And if you catch him staring off into the sky he is just admiring the ducks flying by.

And while we won’t tow your car or write you a ticket, we may privately or publicly shame you.

Thank you for your cooperation… and remember, the street sweeper is much better at picking up dirt than it is at parallel parking.
