The Riverside Easter Egg Hunt will be postponed to April 2nd at 11:30 am.
We are forecasted to get a significant amount of rain on Friday and there are concerns that the fields will remain wet and might be damaged if there is not enough time for them to dry. We wanted to get this notification out as early as possible so families can adjust their plans accordingly.
Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Snow Aftermath
The Public Works Department will continue storm clean-up throughout the day today. We will be salting intersections and roadways that have iced over. We are battling the wind and freezing temperatures, but the sun and tires will help activate the salt. We continue to ask that you do no throw snow into the roadways as you clean off and dig out your cars. We will also be clearing sidewalks and lots on Municipal property. If you have a concern about any roadway, intersection or sidewalk, please contact Township Administrator Meghan Jack at 856-461-1460 x4 or mjack@riversidetwp.org.
