Community group Father Time recognized by board for 20 years of programming
Summary
Members of Father Time described two decades of peer-support programming for fathers and local events, and Mayor George Hough offered formal congratulations during the board meeting.
The Keansburg Board of Education recognized Father Time, a local fathers' support organization, for 20 years of service in a presentation during the meeting. Members recounted recurring events—fishing derbies, father-daughter dances and holiday activities—that they said provide social connection and practical help for fathers and families.
"So my name is Donald Acolano, and I'm one of the founding members," said Donald Acolano, describing how the group provided camaraderie and support when his children were young. Speakers detailed the group's community events, including an annual fall fishing derby and outreach activities that draw families from across neighboring towns.
Several board members and Mayor George Hough offered congratulations. "This is Mayor George Hough from the Borough Of Kingsburg, and I wanted to reach out and say congratulations to Father Tyme for 20 years of service," the mayor said, praising the group's events and volunteer efforts. Board members also acknowledged recent retirements of district staff and highlighted the organization's role in community engagement.
The presentation concluded with board appreciation and a transition to the student representative reports and the regular agenda.
