How does it make sense that non-profit YMCA is out sponsoring things in Ridgewood? Isn’t that money spent better elsewhere helping people?
its called marketing
Who’s paying the overtime?
How much does this cost tax payers ?
Who benefits from this financially?
Looks lovely and fun but who benefits and what does ridgewood make off this or have to pay out to host this?
taxpayers pay , you get what you voted for
What does the Y have to do with it?
It must be a good 100 grand for the day. Fire works, parade, overtime. In the end a mess. And if it rains, it’s a shit show.
