News from Salisbury Township.
Summer Playground Program – Cancelled
It is with regret that the Township announces the cancellation of the Summer Park Playground Program for 2021. Running a program for a large number of children to participate in shared activities and extensive interaction is not feasible at this time due to the current COVID restrictions/guidelines. The Recreation Committee is planning other fun and safe activities that follow CDC guidelines so please check the website for updates.
State Representative Ryan MacKenzie’s office will be hosting the following services:
Please be advised that the Salisbury Township Tax Collector, Ms. Tamara Kulik Smarch, currently has sitting hours on Tuesdays from 9:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., or by appointment only.
