Annual Easter Egg Hunt
Saturday, March 30, 2024
On Saturday March 30, the Borough hosted its Annual Easter Egg Hunt for the residents of Bogota. The event included a promising showing from families of the community and was facilitated by event staff volunteers including Mayor Daniele Fede, Council President Connie Carpenter, Councilwoman Lisa Kohles, Councilman Rob Robbins, Councilman Pat McHale, and several members of the Borough’s REC Committee. Members of the Borough’s Department of Public Works and Police Department were present to help setup and run this event under the direction of our Rec Department.
The Borough was even able to pull a few strings and secure a visit from our special guest, the Easter Bunny!
A special thanks to our long-time friend and beloved REC Director Mr. Jim Moore for all of his work on a yet another successful hunt. This will be Jim’s final Easter Egg Hunt as Director of Recreation for the Borough, Jim plans to stepdown later this month, and enjoy his retirement with his family. I’m sure it goes without saying that Jim will always hold a special place in our hearts, and his commitment to the this community will never be forgotten. Jim will still assist the Borough’s Rec Department in a part-time role, and as Senior Citizen Coordinator going forward.
Thank you to all who came out and celebrated with us!
