Tartaglione distributes backpacks in Wissinoming

State Sen. Christine Tartaglione concluded her 2019 community picnics last Thursday as local school children flocked to Wissinoming Park for the third and final gathering of the annual summertime series.

Tartaglione distributed close to 1,000 backpacks stuffed with school supplies during the series, which included picnics at Fairhill Square Park on Aug. 8 and Lawncrest Recreation Center on Aug. 15.

The Wissinoming Park event featured DJ Carlos Sanchez, face painting, new voting machines and a fingerprinting table staffed by the 15th Police District.
