On September 4, 2018, East Hills Mayor Michael Koblenz ended another successful season at the Village’s 12,000 sq. ft. swimming pool. Mayor Koblenz said, “I thank the members of our staff and our lifeguards for a banner year highlighted by even extending the season an extra day before the school year began. I also am appreciative to Deputy Mayor Manny Zuckerman and Trustees Clara Pomerantz, Brian Meyerson and Stacey Siegel who helped coordinate, supervise and plan the events held at the Park over the summer.” The 2018 programs over the summer months included:
