Anthony Todaro is a 1976 graduate of Bloomfield High School (BHS) and a recently retired Bloomfield educator who held the position of BHS Industrial Arts Teacher. Todaro has served numerous Boards and nonprofits and plans to bring years of community service involvement to the BEF Board.

His prior experience begins with a 14-year stint as President of The Babe Ruth League, overseeing day-to-day operations of recreational baseball, travel baseball, tournament hosting, fundraising and physical construction of a two-story year-round field house at Wrights Field.  His volunteer path then took him to the Foley Field Revitalization Committee, renamed The Foley Field Foundation.  A founding member of this effort, Todaro served for 12 years, three years as President.  Here, he helped promote the Foley Field upgrade referendum.  Additionally, Todaro served for two terms as a member of the Bloomfield Recreation Department where he took part in opening ceremonies for various leagues in town and gave input for development of new programs and the selections for the summer concert series.

Other volunteer projects that Todaro undertook include: the supervision of BHS varsity baseball dugouts at the Bloomfield Middle School, and the prefabricated kiosk for Memorial Park Skatepark.  Presenting to Investors Bank, he requested and secured funds for a scoreboard and renovations to the skate park kiosk which became a dual-purpose building serving as a skate park kiosk and a storage facility for the Bloomfield Babe Ruth League and William Foley Football.

Most recently, Todaro has become a member of the Bloomfield Kiwanis International, which will help him to develop strong ties with the Bloomfield community and the high school Key Club members.

“As a member of the BEF, I will serve on as many committees as I am needed, take part in fundraising activities, and attend meetings on a regular basis.  I have a strong desire to stay connected to the Bloomfield School System of which I am a product,” stated Todaro.
