Summer is here, and I hope you’re all as excited as I am for nicer weather ahead! Summer is the perfect time to enjoy our beautiful parks, attend Bucktown MusicFest, and spend quality time with family and friends. As we dive into summer, let’s remember to stay safe, whether we’re exploring new places or just relaxing at home.

I also want to give a big shoutout to all our graduating seniors. Congratulations! You’ve worked hard to reach this milestone, and we couldn’t be prouder of your achievements. As you move on to new adventures, know that we’re cheering you on every step of the way. Your success is a testament to your dedication and perseverance, and we can’t wait to see what you accomplish next.

I’m convinced that if you traveled the country, you wouldn’t find a community as tight-knit as Dunmore. If you were at the Dunmore Community Center on Saturday, April 20th, you’d see why.

For the past 10 years, the annual Jog for Jude event has brought many people together to raise awareness and funds for S.I.D.S. (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) research. The event honors Jude Zayac, who tragically passed away in July 2014.

Jog for Jude is a shining example of the Dunmore community rallying around one of our own and turning an unimaginable tragedy into an opportunity to inspire hope in all of us.

Mayor’s Message: Dunmore Police receive grant for body cameras

I am proud to report that after several months of work, the Dunmore Police Department has received the good news that it was the recipient of a grant for $50,000 to purchase body-worn cameras. 

We would like to thank Representative Kyle Mullins for his critical assistance in obtaining this grant and Governor Josh Shapiro’s Office of Community and Economic Development for reviewing and approving the grant. 

The Dunmore Police Department is among the few departments in Northeastern PA that currently do not utilize body-worn cameras. When we were looking at how we could improve the department, we determined that body-worn cameras would benefit the department in many ways. 

We recognize the role that body cameras play in transparency and accountability within our community. By enhancing public trust and officer accountability, these cameras will contribute to a safer and more accountable policing environment in Dunmore.
