Summer is here
once again, and once again there are many great things to do around
Lincoln Park.
Continuing with
our commitment to provide healthy, fun and safe things for you and your
children to do in town, we have made some great improvements to our
Community
Lake.
First is that the playground and pavilion at the lake will now be
available for all residents to use from Labor Day through Memorial Day when
the beach is closed for swimming.
During the summer when the beach is open for swimming, membership
will be required. Lake membership continues to be among the most affordable
in the area at $25.00 for a single and $50.00 for a family.
Following up on last year’s addition of the water trampoline,
floating dock, kayaks and paddle boats; this year we will be adding a large
water slide. Funding for this
addition along with many of the previous equipment purchases is from a very
kind private donation from a bighearted Lincoln Park resident.
We also anticipate having several evening social functions for adults
throughout the summer at the lake.
Remember that
following many resident requests last year, use of the lake has been
expanded to allow non-motorized water craft.
This is only available for residents of Lincoln Park and your boat
must be registered with the town.
For lake members, the kayaks and paddle boats are available for
rental during days the lake is open.
I am happy to
inform you that the Fourth of July Fireworks celebration held at the LP
Nursing home last year will again take place this year.
This year, the fireworks will take place on Sunday, July 4th.
Parking and transportation to the event will be available at several
borough facilities. Please watch
for further details or sign up for the borough’s email newsgroup service.
The Lincoln
Park Emergency Services, the volunteers of our two fire companies and the
EMS squad, are running their third annual carnival.
The carnival will be held on Boro Field at the Municipal Complex from
July 13th through the 17th.
Please come out and support the dedicated men and women of our
Emergency Services…and have some fun!
Please remember
that this time of the year also means school is out, which means more
children out playing, and more adults out exercising or enjoying the
weather. Please always be aware
of pedestrians, bicycle riders, runners, mopeds and motorcycles.
It’s always a good idea to look twice and save a life.
Make sure to
sign up for the free newsgroup service offered by the borough to keep
current with information and events.

a fun, safe and healthy summer!
