BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — Summer doesn't have to end. Bergen County still has several free outdoor movies and concerts planned for the rest of August.

The next free movie in the lineup is the film about meteorologists who study tornadoes, Twisters — perhaps a harbinger of storms to come.

Bergen County Executive Jim Tedesco said earlier this summer, “With a fantastic lineup of concerts and movies across four beautiful parks, there’s truly something for everyone. Bring a blanket, bring the family, and come make some great summer memories with us.”
