Borough officials at all levels are offering a number of opportunities for residents to speak out on issues, programs and activities as well as learn more about the borough’s volunteers and employees at two separate special programs this month.
Going on right now, the Police Department will feature Coffee with a Cop at the Starbuck’s restaurant on Route 36 from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Police officers will be at Starbucks and welcome families to stop in, meet the officers and chat.
On Saturday, Oct. 14, all borough commissions will be present for the annual Touch a Truck activity at the Yacht Harbor. Councilman Jon Crowley announced the event for Atlantic Highlands Day will include two bands and 12 food trucks, in addition to a Beer Garden presented by Carton Brewery, art displays and numerous other activities.
Trucks and a variety of other municipal and fire and police department vehicles will be at the Harbor, and families are invited to enjoy the up-close tour of the mobile force of the department. The borough’s Senior Citizen Committee will have brochures and information available for senior services and opportunities from both the county and the state, and other municipal commissions will have information and explanations of their committees and what they offer to the municipality.
The free event is open to all, and parents are encouraged to bring their children to view and enjoy all the vehicles on display. The event will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
