PARK REMAINS DEDICATED TO MISSION OF PROVIDING OUTDOORS RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES IN ONE OF NATION\’S MOST DENSELY POPULATED AREAS
(15/P52) TRENTON – Cheesequake State Park will mark its 75th anniversary with an array of festivities open to the public on Saturday, June 6, Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin announced today.
The ceremonies will focus on the people who have made the park, located in Old Bridge, Middlesex County, a success, from past and current employees to the many patrons who have visited since then-Governor Harry Moore officially opened the park on June 22, 1940.
\”This 75th anniversary celebration will focus on the mission of the park as it was then, and as it remains today, which is providing residents of this densely populated section of New Jersey a place to enjoy the benefits of outdoor recreation and to learn about nature,\” said Commissioner Martin. \”In a sense, Cheesequake\’s mission is even more important today by providing diverse recreational opportunities and a place to get away from the many demands of modern living.\”
