WWII reenactment committee members met on Wednesday, April 27 to discuss the upcoming reenactment set for Saturday, Aug. 6 at 3 p.m. Committee members will be selling t-shirts and hats this year. They will be honoring the WWII veterans again this year. As in the past, there will be special seating area for all of our veterans under a tent. It was suggested that the business owners put a sign outside of their businesses with the name of their business in German. A huge request that there be no drones at the reenactment due to liability and the possibility that a drone could get caught up in the explosions and the reenactors will not be watching out for drones and delaying any of their activities due to drones. Drones like helicopters were not available during WWII so please respect the reenactors and our veterans. Also, spectators are to stay behind the roped areas even after the reenactors have passed by you as there was no one walking behind the soldiers during the real war and it takes away from the meaning when there are people following inside the roped areas.

The next reenactment meeting is Wednesday, June 1 at 6:30 p.m. at the borough office.

The 2006 Ford F100 pickup truck was put out for bid and council accepted a bid of $2500 from Ron Hannah as it was the highest bid.
