Ridgewood NJ, Billed as the “Embrace the national “Come Alive Outside” campaign it was an afternoon of family fun and activity and the famous rubber duck race!”
Sponsored by Jacobsen Landscape Design and Construction, the Ridgewood Fire Departmetn FMBA #47 and Ridgewood Parks and Recreation.
The annual Duck Derby was a great opportunity to beat the heat. As a reader said , “It was a fabulous day. My three sons had so much fun. But I was left wondering why the heck Gwenn Hauck was all over the place. She is no longer in office and frankly I was not happy to see her. Didn’t she get the memo that there is a new council in place?”

Whoever wrote that about Gwenn Hauck was on point. Why was she there in some kind of official capacity? Does she work for the Village? Is she an elected official? No, she does not and she is not. She is a VOLUNTEER on a committee. The event should have been run by an employee of the Village, not by a committee volunteer. Sorry, Mrs. Hauck, we no longer need or want you around. I was not at the duckie derby, but I am still very annoyed to read that she was so involved in it.
