This year’s lucky winners of the membership raffle

5 Jun

Thank you to all those households here in River’s Edge who renewed or joined the neighborhood association, River’s Edge Commons, Inc. (RECI). And, a special thank you to those households who joined the Association by the June 1 “early bird” deadline.

Four of those early bird households were also lucky households – and each will receive a 2-week “vacation cut” and lawn service, courtesy of one of our business partners, The Yard Artists, making their summertime here in beautiful River’s Edge just a little be nicer!

Congratulations to :

  • Deavers               Brewster Road
  • DiMarco               Brewster Road
  • Pitts                       River’s Edge Drive
  • Schumann           South Riverside Drive

It’s too late to be part of this year’s raffle, but not too late to become a member – just go to www.recommons.org and pay your dues today!
