Anyone can come in and use a laptop in the library or use one of the three computers the library has available to the public. Corrections The July 28 article regarding the Ramapo Valley Railroad Club’s tax appeal should have stated that the Ho-HoKus VFW building is located at 620 Cliff Street. Due to a production error, a portion of the last paragraph of the article on the upcoming reassessment in Ho-Ho-Kus was not printed. That paragraph should have appeared as follows: “According to the state, coefficient, the difference between the average ratio and an individual ratio, should not show deviation of over 12 percent.”

VFW ceremony
(continued from page 8) District Two Commander Kelly’s theme this year is “Veterans Serving Together.” In his remarks during the ceremony, Kelly noted that there was representation from several different groups, including Ho-Ho-Kus/Ridgewood Post 192, Ramsey Post 682, Glen Rock Post 850, Mahwah Post 7124, the Marine Corps League, the VFW Ladies Auxiliary, and the North Jersey Military Moms (formerly Mahwah Marine Moms). He said all of those representatives were present to support each other. Mahwah VFW Post 7124 Commander Hank Leonard also presented Terry Wendrychowicz, the leader of the North Jersey Military Moms, with a check for $1,000 from Post 7124 to assist the parents’ group in their activities to support military service men and women. Eileen Mattarazo, a representative of the North Jersey Military Moms, also made a presentation on behalf of the group to one of the Blue Star families. Mattarazo presented a flag that had flown over a military base in Afghanistan. The flag will be passed around to each of the Blue Star families. The Veterans of Foreign Wars District Two, with its 41 posts in Bergen County and its more than 5,700 members, has been the official Veterans of Foreign Wars organization for Bergen County since it was chartered by the National VFW in June 1946.
