We’ve had quite a week here in Ambler Borough! At Tuesday’s Committee Meeting we were honored to host 11 year old Lachlan Ambler and his Mom, hailing from Hazlet Township N.J. Lachlan is the 6th great cousin of our Borough namesake Mary Ambler. Mayor Sorg presented Lachlan and his mom with honorary citizenship to Ambler Borough. Chief Borkowski added to the fun with a gift of some SWAG from the PD, and a t-shirt from Ambler Main Street.

It was a pleasure to meet an ancestor of someone who is such an important part of the history of the Borough! We hope to see you again soon!
