Ridgewood NJ, For $65 per adult and $60 per child (under 2 years old free), Ridgewood residents may purchase Graydon badges for the remainder of the summer season, through Labor Day. This is half the price of a full-season badge.

This is a fine opportunity to learn to love Graydon or to return to it if you haven’t bought a badge this year.
Badges can also be purchased through the staff at the Graydon Badge Office at the base of the steps leading from the Graydon North parking lot, located at the northwest corner of Linwood Avenue and Northern Parkway.

Seaside Heights NJ, Assembly Republican Leader Jon Bramnick called on Gov. Phil Murphy to sign legislation fixing a 2018 law that inadvertently taxed owners of summer rentals. The bill (A4814) has been sitting on his desk since June 27.
“Quick action is needed to save what remains of the summer vacation season,” said Bramnick (R-Union). “Every day that passes with this tax still in place is less income for families to spend while on vacation at the Shore.”
Both houses of the Legislature unanimously passed the bill in June. It exempts homeowners who rent directly to vacationers from last year’s Airbnb tax, which extended the 6.625 percent sales tax and the 5 percent hotel and motel occupancy fee to private rentals of less than 90 days.
Ridgewood NJ, summer time: warm weather, sun, vacations, swimming and… air pollution? It might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of summer, but it’s true. Air pollution is at its highest during the summer months. The Ridgewood Health Department and the American Lung Association offer these helpful hints to keep you and your family healthy and safe this summer while also reducing air pollution for everyone.
As the weather heats up, ground-level ozone pollution increases as pollutants react to heat and sunlight. Ozone levels also increase due to summer wildfires. When ozone levels are high, anyone who spends time outdoors may be at risk, but children, seniors and people with lung disease are particularly vulnerable.

Ridgewood NJ, As New Jersey residents prepare to celebrate Memorial Day and the unofficial start of summer, the Division of Consumer Affairs and the U.S. Product Safety Commission today kicked off “Summer Safety Week” to raise awareness of the increased risk of injury that warm weather brings.
“For many people, the months between Memorial Day and Labor Day are the most fun and exciting months of the year. But summer activities come with preventable risks, especially for children,” said Paul R. Rodríguez, Acting Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs. “As we head into the Memorial Day weekend, we’re urging consumers to learn how to avoid seasonal risks to themselves and their children so that everyone stays safe while enjoying summer activities.”
Sometimes you have a long weekend ahead of you and you have no idea of what to do with it. Well, you might end up sleeping in the better part of it, only for ideas to start overflowing when you get back to work. Quite unfair, right? To avoid the feeling of regret, do something about it: have a plan. Do not wait until a long weekend catches up for you to start planning; it will probably be over before you even make the most out of it. Here are a few things that you can add on your weekend to-do list. They are fun and will keep you engaged during your entire break.
1. Volunteer
Have you ever thought of giving back to the community? If you haven’t, now should be the perfect time to start. Many volunteer groups will appreciate an extra hand. It could be volunteering to meet emergency medical needs: long weekends usually have so much going on. You could visit a children’s home, visit the old people and even help in cleaning up your town. The beauty of this is that at the end of the day, you will have had enough time to bond with new friends over something productive and meet a lot new people. Also, there is a feeling of satisfaction giving back.
2. Stay indoors and play
You do not have to leave your house to have the time of your life. Not exaggerating but, no joy matches having fun without leaving your home. Thanks to online casinos, you can gamble the entire weekend. The best part is that you can take advantage of casino bonuses and do some free spins. You will also get the chance to make some money.
Board games is also a good idea for some indoor fun.
3. De-clutter your home
This can be a bit tiresome but also very satisfying. An organized home has a way of making everyone happy. If your home is filled with clutter dating back to over a decade ago, a long weekend will be the perfect time to do something about it. You need to get rid of everything that you do not need.
More so, it is very rejuvenating to start a new week on a clean slate: literally. You can call a friend over to help you with that as you bond over a glass of wine.
4. Study or read a book
If you have played enough casino games already and there is no sign of an upcoming volunteering event, you might want to get to books. A long weekend will give you enough time to catch up with all the topics that you might have been left behind during the week. Also, it is enough time to binge read a novel and complete it.
5. Go on a vacation
You do not always get the chance to go out of town and leave everything behind. You should take advantage of that long weekend and go out of town. Vacations are therapeutic and rejuvenating. The beauty of this is that most of your friends will be more than glad to tag along.
6. Sleep in and relax
How often do you regret not resting on a long weekend? We only get to appreciate the chance of having an uninterrupted sleep and just relaxing when we are not overwhelmed with work. Just like a vacation, sleeping in and just relaxing can be very refreshing. The best part is that you won’t have to spend a dime. All you need is clean sheets and enough food at your place.
7. Binge watch
Have you been dying to watch Game of Thrones or any other show but never had the time? This is an opportunity for you to binge watch everything you find interesting. A long weekend is a great time to watch over ten episodes of a show without interruptions. You do not want the weekend to end and hop onto another hectic week and miss out on a chance to watch everything that you have been desiring.
Add the four ideas to your list, and you will never have dull and slow weekends!
