Under a beautiful sunny sky, a new sign was dedicated at Columbus Park (located at the corner of Nassau Street and Remsen Avenue) on Friday, October 17.

The new sign is a donation from North Brunswick PBA Local 160 as a gesture of appreciation and giving back to the community. Also, the PBA honored the members of the Italian-American Social Club of North Brunswick, who dedicated the park on October 7, 1984.

“We looked at this park and I said when you look at those names on this plaque, their legacy is still around,” said PBA president Fedor Salvador-Romero.

He said the dedication is a celebration of the diverse and caring spirit of North Brunswick, one that continues to grow stronger through cooperation, civic duty and pride.

Township Council President Amanda Guadagnino read a proclamation honoring the 1984 North Brunswick Italian-American Club officers and North Brunswick PBA Local 160 for their support and donation of the new park sign.

Nick Puleio, son of former Italian-American Social Club president Vito Puleio, delivered remarks and Rev. Michael Krull, pastor of Our Lady of Peace R.C. Church, said a blessing.
