Mayor Perry Meets with Cub Scouts to Discuss Community Leadership
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Wednesday, November 25th, Mayor Tony Perry participated in a virtual meeting with Cub Scout Den 1 Pack 122 of New Monmouth Elementary School to discuss what it means to be a community leader. Den leader Alyssa Spigai arranged this conversation since the scouts are working towards their "Arrow of Light" rank. Part of earning this rank is meeting with local leaders to learn how to better serve their community. Mayor Perry reminded the boys that they don't need to be a mayor to make a difference; they can do it by standing up for others, doing their best in school, and most importantly by helping their parents!

THE MIDDLETOWN ARTS CENTER PRESENTS:LETTERS TO SANTA!

|
|
|
|
This year, Santa has asked for a little help from the elves at the Middletown Arts Center and Arts Council to once again make sure all of the letters from Middletown children are delivered to the North Pole by setting up mailboxes throughout town (see letter drop off locations listed in the image above)!
Your child will receive a personalized letter back from Santa if you include a complete return address along with your child's name, age, and any related information that Santa might find helpful! To receive a response before Christmas, please drop your letter(s) in any of Santa's special mailboxes across town before December 20th.
CLICK HERE FOR A SAMPLE LETTER TO SANTA! Although there is no cost, parents are encouraged to make a suggested donation of $5 per letter by visiting middletownarts.org/donate to help pay for reindeer food and the long trek to the North Pole!
