Last night we held the Ridgewood Village Council Candidates Debate at Village Hall. Every seat was filled and we were fortunate to be joined by ~50 RHS students. Thank you to all who were able to attend and to those who watched the livestream. Below is the video recording.
Many thanks to Voters Service Chair Lauren Anderson, director Kumiko Suzuki and Voters Service consultant Joan Burns, along with our question vetters, Janet Anderson and Gail Glorisi, timekeepers Joyce Sharkey and Jen Friedman, and the officers, directors who volunteered at the event, Lynn Benson, Deb Lee and Susan Madison, and members Yishane Lee and Ellie Gruber.
