Closing Down The Outdoors in NJ
More genius from the state politburo in the Peoples Republic of New Jersey. You can read the story here.
The state parks listed below are slated for elimination of services and/or closures:
Brendan T. Byrne State ForestParks slated for partial elimination of services include:
Monmouth Battlefield State Park
Stephens State Park
High Point State Park
Round Valley Recreation Area (no fishing???)
Parvin State Park
Jenny Jump State Forest
Worthington State Forest
Fort Mott State ParkRingwood State ParkAccording to the article:
D&R Canal State Park
Washington Crossing State Park
In addition to the park closures, some 80 parks workers would be laid off as part of the cost-cutting measures and 16 vacant positions would be eliminated.
The layoffs would be effective July 1, but the parks could close before that....FOAC * GOA * SAF * NRA Life Member

Just another reason for everyone to pull out their Sawzall and start cutting NJ away from the rest of the continent.

Re: Closing Down The Outdoors in NJ
Thats a shame. I was to Jenny Jump a few times back when I was in Boy Scouts. It was a nice place to camp.
And why oh why would we need to preserve a battlefield? Lets just throw up some condos over there......its not like anyone died there or anything........Last edited by sluggie24; April 2nd, 2008 at 05:07 PM.

Re: Closing Down The Outdoors in NJ
I hiked at Monmouth Battlefield several times, usually in the autumn...the adjoining farmland is usually open as well to walk through...no condos, please!
I can't see fishing being "closed" at round valley...it does say "recreational area" so i'm assuming anything other than fishing may be prohibited...but no further details given in the article...FOAC * GOA * SAF * NRA Life Member

They'll probably become landfills.

Re: Closing Down The Outdoors in NJ
Does this mean that people can't even hike there? I can't imagine NJ would allow any activity where they can't monitor people.
A few of the parks listed offered some decent hiking.FUCK BIDEN
