The Teaneck Veterans of Foreign War (VFW) 1429 is sponsoring a Spring Carnival April 19 to April 22. The Carnival will be held at the New Overpeck Park at 119 Challenger Road in Ridgefield Park. We are raising money to aid the Family Readiness Group that supports the Teaneck Armory National Guard. The Guard will be deployed again overseas very soon and need our help. We need to raise money to support the families that are left behind and help send care packages overseas. When the soldiers are deployed the families make less money then if they were working at their regular jobs.
