The Annual Mayor’s Breakfast, hosted by the Haddonfield Lions Club, will be held on Saturday, Jan. 16, 2016 at the First Presbyterian Church, 20 Kings Highway East in Haddonfield. The event will begin at 9 a.m. Tickets are $7 each and will be available at the door.
Mayor Jeff Kasko will deliver the annual State of the Borough Address and also present the Citizen of the Year award, which recognizes an outstanding member of the Haddonfield community.
Letters inviting nominations for Citizen of the Year are going out soon. Nomination forms are available on the Haddonfield Lions Club website at www.haddonfieldlions.org, and by sending an e-mail to the Citizen of the Year committee chair, Tom Quigley, at tmquigs@yahoo.com.
Many outstanding community members have been nominated previously, and the committee is happy to consider both former and new nominees. However, nominations must be current and include the 2016 Nomination Form as a cover sheet, together with one or more statements by those making the recommendation. Nominees must be Haddonfield residents.

At the Mayor’s Breakfast, the Lions will be collecting eyeglasses, hearing aids and cell phones for recycling. This year, the Club will also collect non-perishable food items for the Food Pantry at the John D. Young Memorial Blind Center in Absecon.
