Brick Township, NJ – On a sunny Saturday, June 17th, Mayor Lisa Crate and Councilman Derrick Ambrosino enthusiastically joined forces with the Emma Havens Young Early Act Club for a special event. Together, they unveiled the much-anticipated “Take a Toy, Return a Toy” sand toy bin, which has found its new home at Brick Beach III. The occasion was a heartwarming testament to the collaborative efforts of the EHY Early Act Club, as well as their dedicated advisors, Ms. Soltman and Mrs. Carone.
The sand toy bin, lovingly handcrafted and generously donated by the EHY Early Act Club, stands as a symbol of community spirit and giving. Its purpose is simple yet impactful: children visiting the beach this summer can borrow a toy to enjoy during their time in the sand, and in return, they are encouraged to leave a toy behind for others to experience the same joy.
Mayor Crate and Councilman Ambrosino praised the EHY Early Act Club for their initiative and creativity, recognizing the value it brings to the community. The sand toy bin provides an opportunity for children to engage in play and foster a sense of sharing and kindness at a young age. Furthermore, it serves as a reminder of the importance of sustainability and the idea of recycling toys for the enjoyment of future beachgoers.
The event was filled with excitement and gratitude as Mayor Crate and Councilman Ambrosino expressed their appreciation to the EHY Early Act Club, as well as their dedicated advisors, for their hard work and thoughtfulness in creating the sand toy bin. Their efforts will undoubtedly make a positive impact on the countless children who will visit Brick Beach III throughout the summer.
As the unveiling ceremony came to a close, Mayor Crate and Councilman Ambrosino encouraged residents and visitors to embrace the spirit of the “Take a Toy, Return a Toy” initiative. They emphasized the importance of community involvement and the role each individual can play in creating a welcoming and enjoyable environment for all.
