Pools At Darlington Park In Bergen County Forced To Temporarily Close
A swimming area that's open to all NJ residents has temporarily closed, said Bergen County officials.
MAHWAH, NJ – Darlington County Park — a park in Mahwah with a swimming area and Splash Zone open to all New Jersey residents for a fee — will be temporarily closed through Sunday, county officials said.
The swimming areas had to close Friday due to the presence of harmful algae blooms in the water, officials said.
All water and non-water recreational activities will be unavailable during this time.
"The county apologizes for the inconvenience and appreciates the public’s patience and understanding," they said. "The Bergen County Parks Department is working diligently to address the issue and reopen the park for water and non-water recreational activities as quickly and safely as possible."
