Wow! Was it ever exciting and fulfilling to see nearly 400 youngsters have the chance to visit with Santa during Phillipsburg’s Annual Tree Lighting program. This is always a highlight of the year for me, and 2012 was no exception. Every child received a hat and gloves from the Atlantic States CAP, and each of them also received a stocking from The Chamber and the community. As many as 1,000 people joined us for a special night.
Meg Dowd got a new holiday program started this year - “Christmas in Phillipsburg” and our Christmas Mart Tent helped many to enjoy their time in our town.
Now is the time to look forward to a new year. In January we will continue our Phillipsburg/Easton metworking breakfasts. Also, we are looking forward to having a more direct impact on New Jersey Public Policy issues, and will be instituting a series of meetings with our legislators and updates on pertinent issues.
Coming up faster than one can imagine, will be our Annual Mayor’s Lunch starring our own Harry Wyant, and then in April we will schedule the PACC Awards Dinner. This is a major date change for us and brings P’burg programming into a closer match with other GLVCC council celebrations.
This spring, the Toll Bridge Commission will begin work on the Route 22 Bridge, and we will coordinate our efforts on behalf of our members.
Keep your eyes on our schedule...You will be rewarded.
