Dear Graydon fan,
Please consider signing the following petition:
Petition to restore normal Graydon hours
We respectfully ask the Village to restore the standard Graydon opening time of 10 AM every day throughout the summer.
The Village website states that Graydon will be closed until noon on 28 days in a three-month swimming season: the first 13 weekdays in June and the last 15 weekdays (3 weeks) in August.
Without a morning swimming option, many may see no point in buying Graydon badges–especially those with young children or grandchildren to amuse on a hot day. Once they’ve gone elsewhere, they may never return.
We believe that simplifying the daily schedule to 10 AM to 7:30 PM, as before, would encourage new and renewed memberships, reduce confusion, and not risk alienating potential patrons.
We love our natural, sand-bottomed pool—our beautiful, unique, safe oasis. We want Graydon to thrive. Our wish, and we hope yours, is for this landmark to remain a quintessentially Ridgewood summer tradition. To attract patrons year after year and generation after generation, Graydon must remain open for business.
If you agree that Graydon should open at 10 AM every day, please “sign” the petition above by replying to info@preservegraydon.org with the following message text:
Full name(s)
Street address AND TOWN
Number of people in household
Use kiddie pool (children, grandchildren, other)?
PLEASE RESPOND BY TUESDAY, April 3, or no later than Wednesday afternoon.
The petition statement and list of signers will be presented to the Village Council on Wednesday, April 4 (7:30 PM, 4th-floor courtroom, Village Hall). Please come if you can.
Thanks for your support in keeping Graydon natural AND open.
Till soon,
Marcia Ringel and Alan Seiden
