Dunk a Politician, October 2011
The Foundation raised funds through a dunking booth at the South Amboy Street Fair. People dunked well-known figures of South Amboy, including former Mayor John O’Leary and City Councilman Mickey Gross as well as South Amboy High School teacher and coach Tony Gonsalves. The booth was made possible thanks to generous donations from State Assemblyman John Wisniewski and Dosils Scuba Shop of Middletown. The funds will be used
to purchase an online teaching center for the Library.
