Maplewood Pols Get All Wet

Local elected officials get dunked for a good cause.

Maplewood Mayor Vic DeLuca — along with Committeeman Jerry Ryan (a former mayor) and many other volunteers — made themselves the target of some good-natured fun as they raised money for the on July 4. 

That is, they got soaked in a dunk tank.

For one dollar a throw, or six throws for five dollars, particpants who hit the target were able to dunk the unfortunate victim. One can only hope that at least the dunks were refreshing on a hot, steamy July day.
