2009 Delran Easter Egg Hunt

Tomorrow is the first day of Spring and I've already had several people ask when is this years Easter Egg Hunt! 

This years egg hunt is set for Saturday 4/4/09 with a rain date of Sunday.  The event starts promptly at 12 noon over at Conrow Park (by the water tower).  Don't be a minute late!  If you've been there before, you know that once the whistle blows, the hunt is over in seconds!

To give you an idea, here is video from a couple of years ago:

Rabies Alert

From philly.com...

A stray kitten found Thursday in Delran has tested positive for rabies.

The Burlington County Health Department today warned area residents to avoid stray cats and to update their pets' immunizations.

Anyone who had contact with the kitten, found on Moreland Drive, may have been exposed to rabies and should contact their doctor as soon as possible, county epidemiologist Jennifer Horner said in a statement.

"Rabies is transmitted through saliva by bites or scratches," said the department's William Weisgarber. "It's carried by raccoons, skunks and bats. We're warning people to be cautious. Don't feed wild animals."

For information, call the county's rabies control line at 609-265-5789.
