Paulsboro Day Celebration

BOROUGH OF PAULSBORO
September 10, 2005

"P" might be for the Phillies,
but today it also represents Paulsboro Day
with a refreshing water ice by Gezzi's!

Assemblyman Stephen Fisher (on left),
Assemblyman / Mayor John Burzichelli and
Councilwoman Elsie Tedeski (on right) stand in honor
of the national anthem sung by soloist Marquishia Stringfield.

This Paulsboro Day sign displayed the
entertainment scheduled throughout the day.

Margaret LaDue hangs this art display from Paulsboro High School Art class 1, 2 and 3, including Art Service from 2004-2005. The art shields on the left were completed with the late Art Department Head Mr. Gaines, who was a teacher for 34 years.

This eight-month old Phillies fan, Alexis,
shares a laugh with mother Theresa Marciante.

Paulsboro represenatatives from the Woodbury National Guard Pvt. Vincent Luton (second from right) and Spc Daniel Mehmel
(on right) greeted Carolyn Kappre (on left) and Donald Doaks.
Some people stopped by the display because they were interested in what it takes to become a national guard and some people just wanted to commend them
for their dedication to our country.

Paulsboro Day and the Tinicum Lighthouse
signs were posted by the 295 ramps
to lead people to the festivities.

Superintendent of Paulsboro Public Schools Dr. Frank Scambia stands with science teacher Linda Smith, first grade transitional teacher Judy Tuscano, assistant principal/director of 21 Century program Phil Neff and LDk-1 teacher Elaine Andrus. These school system representatives, and others from the administration building, the high school, Loudenslager and Billingsport manned the Paulsboro Education Association booth.

Loudenslager teacher, Bert Avante
took her granddaughter, Arionna,
to enjoy the day's celebration.

Gill Memorial Librarians, Violet Valentine (kneeling),
Curtis Banks (on left) and Jim Pratz created a wonderful
historical display with Michelle Pratz,
Christina Lenker and Steven Lenker (on right).

If you didn't get a chance to view the
Gill Memorial Library history display,
you must do it next Paulsboro Day!

This Dragon Wagon thrilled youngsters.

The Dragon Wagon castle appearance
made this a popular ride.

Face painting at Paulsboro Day made for
a special first soccer game for Sean...

... and for Victor, who scored a goal
in the Coyotes' initial game.

Melissa's favorite character was SpongeBob while...

...Beverlyn had her face painted like a cat.

Crowds of children played the limbo
to music provided by Jamaica-me-crazy.

These Paulsboro Day citizens danced to the Mummer's Strut.

Gloria Rone (left) and Hattie Paige greet
Leroy Reed at the Valero booth.

Christopher has fun beeping the
1901 Oldsmobile antique car.

The South Pacific Island Dancers feature Liva (on left)
and Niko (on right) as their
father, Scoop, keeps the rhythm.

Scoop leads the entertainment.

The South Pacific Island Dancers change costumes
that signify various cultures of the South Pacific Islands.

Soloist Eileen creates a beautiful dance
with gentle grace.

The energy of the dancers
is always the show-stopper.
