Bloomsburg Area Recreational Trail

January 11, 2023
Town Council decided to name the 2023 trail the Bloomsburg Area Recreational Trail (BART). Construction will start in the Spring of 2023. We are lucky to have such a beautiful setting along the river when water levels are not high.
Please join by voting for the Susquehanna River through POWR (Pennsylvania Organization for Watersheds & Rivers) for River of the Year! Currently, the Susquehanna River is in second place! Voting ends on January 18th at 5 p.m.   CLICK HERE TO VOTE.
“After a waterway is chosen for the annual honor, local groups implement a year-round slate of activities and events to celebrate the river, including a paddling trip, or sojourn. A $10,000 leadership grant will be awarded from DCNR to help fund River of the Year activities.” Susquehanna Greenway Partnership

2022 Parade of Lights

November 28, 2022
“Individual commitment to a group effort: That is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.” -Vince Lombardi.
Town Council approved $500 of Town funds to be spent on the Parade of Lights.
A huge thanks to Sgt. Michael Fosse for the use of his trailer, providing lights, providing three of the four Paw Patrol inflatables and disassembling the float. Thanks to Chief Scott Price for spraying the trailer sides red! A special shout out to all the float decorators: Michael Fosse, Kenneth Auchter, Nicholas Thorpe, Michael Reffeor, Kyle Hoffman, Randi Fetterman, Kimberly Pogash, Kyleigh Bilger and Lisa Dooley. Also, thanks to Dave Bowman for creating the flag framework for Michael Fosse to decorate! Thanks to Lisa Dooley for the costumes, lights, paw wrist bands, dog bones/ ears and remaining inflatables.
It was a creative team building project that we were happy to be a part of in the community. Smiles and laughs are priceless in OUR Town.
