Welcome to summertime in Montclair.  If you were not at Dolphin Beach for Montclair Day 2007, you missed one of the most organized and fun filled community days in many years.  The beach facility looked fresh and professional; the rides and games were new and exciting; the food and beer were plentiful and the excellent band played to an enthusiastic crowd. Events Director, Maryanne Toal; Events Committee chair, Kati Mangrio; and Maintenance Director, Jack Gilbert, deserve the lion's share of credit for this outstanding event.  Supported by the entire Armstrong staff and Events Committee members, they really showed just how much fun could be had when good planning is executed and nearly 130 volunteers pitch in to help.  Special recognition goes to Board Members Tracy Hansen and Geoffrey Winkworth who put in an exceptional amount of effort that day.  The Events Committee needs new members (adults and teens) to help plan the upcoming Teen Beach party and our fall Oktoberfest celebration.  Please, consider joining this very special committee.  Please sign up and volunteer for the 4^th of July, Teen Beach Party or Oktoberfest events.
