Recreational upgrades
Three $25,000 county grants will go toward
improving township parks and playgrounds
By ZANE CLARK
The Sun
At the Nov. 9 meeting of the
Voorhees Township Committee,
committee inserted additional
revenue into this years budget
thanks to funds from the Camden
County Recreation Facility Enhancement Grant program.
Township administrator Larry
Spellman said there were three
grants each at $25,000, and all will
be going toward improving parks
within the township.
Spellman said the first grant
would go toward improving parking lot accessibility for the handicapped at Stafford Woods.
According to Spellman, the second grant would go toward replacing and upgrading playground areas at Round Hill Road,
Lake Villa and Sheppard Road.
Spellman said the final grant

Library seeks
Books for Kids
donations
The Camden County Library
Systems annual Books for Kids
Holiday Campaign provides children with free books that they
can keep and read again and
again. Anyone can donate books
to help the library in this important mission.
The library will be accepting
new or gently-used books, appropriate for a range of ages from babies to young teens. All eight
branches (Bellmawr, Cruz-Perez,
Ferry Avenue, Gloucester Township, Haddon Township, Merchantville, South County and
Voorhees) will have clearly
marked boxes available to collect
the books.
Each year, we ask our customers to recognize the importance of reading by donating
books to our holiday book campaign, Camden County Library
System Director Linda Devlin
said. You can help to foster and
develop a love of reading in children throughout Camden County
who may not have enough books
at home to read.
In conjunction with the book
campaign, Devlin notes that before the holidays would be a good
time for parents to join the librarys 1,000 Books Before
Kindergarten program to develop
and strengthen a childs literacy
skills even before he or she starts
school.
The book donation campaign
will run through Dec. 6. The library sends the books to the Camden County Childrens Services
Department in December to distribute to children throughout
the county in time for the holidays.
The library is seeking new or
gently-used books in very good
condition. Gently-used can be understood to mean books that a
person would be comfortable in
giving as a gift to a close relative.
Books cannot be inscribed with
names nor have book plates indicating an organizations name.

program.
The new senior bus falls under
the program, as it uses compressed natural gas, similar to the
compressed natural trash and recycling trucks the township already uses.
We got a DRPA grant to pay
for the bus, so were just using the
development grant to now pay for
the bus driver instead, Spellman
said.
In other news:
Committee reappointed Police Chief Louis Bordi to the position of the townships emergency
management coordinator.
In the event of a crisis, emergency management coordinators
coordinate activities between
emergency management agencies, local emergency response
agencies and the general public.
Spellman said the state requires the township reappoint its
emergency management professional every three years, and
Bordi has always done a great job.
Committee passed a resolution entering into a shared services purchasing agreement with
the borough of Somerdale for upcoming road and drainage projects.
