Councilman Robert Metzdorf attended the Park Ridge Fire Prevention Bureau’s annual Peter J. Harkin Babysitters Program this week and helped distribute babysitting certification cards to the approximately 65 young participants who completed the program.

The two-day program provided children ages 10 and up with important information on babysitting and child safety, fire prevention, first aid, and emergency preparedness.

Thank you to Captain Brad Moser, Fire Marshal John Hansen, Captain Pete Mauro, Dr. Sarah Lupu of Chestnut Ridge Pediatrics, Yale and Ryan Glazer of the Tri-Boro Volunteer Ambulance Corps, and everyone who helped make this year’s program a success.

A special thank you to the Park Ridge Fire Prevention Bureau for continuing this important program, which has been offered annually since 1974. We appreciate all of the time and effort that goes into preparing our young babysitters to be safe, responsible, and prepared!

Last night, Mayor Keith Misciagna, Councilman Michael Mintz, and Councilman Metzdorf attended the Bergen County Open Space Trust Fund public hearing in Hackensack to present Park Ridge’s application for the Frederick Wortendyke House.
The Borough requested $330,000, and the Bergen County Historic Preservation Committee has recommended $175,000 toward preserving and rehabilitating this important 18th-century historic property.

The funding will help develop a Preservation Plan and begin stabilization and exterior rehabilitation. Our long-term goal is to bring the Wortendyke House back into public use as a historic and cultural resource, with educational programs, exhibits, and community events.

Thank you to Bergen County for recognizing the importance of preserving this special piece of Park Ridge history.
