Ridgewood NJ, an acute lifeguard shortage has forced closure of the entire deep end at Graydon Pool. Most lifeguards are high school or college students. Some colleges have likely started orientation programs for new and returning students. Graydon transitions to a 12 noon weekday opening beginning Monday, August 16. The pool will be closed on August 24, and from August 30 through September 3, as per Village Manager Heather Mailander.
I saw the yellow flag out yesterday. Now I know why.
So fucking mismanaged. When the village manager (Mailander) and the parks-rec head (bigos) and the pool manager (diamond) all hate Graydon, we’ll what do you expect. Of course it is floundering. I want my money back.
