UPDATE: Radburn, Paramus Welcome Memorial Pool Members

Listen up Memorial Pool members drowning your sorrows over losing the summer's final week of poolside action to a hurricane.

There's a better way (and no, it's not illegal).

All Memorial Pool members can visit either of the two Radburn pools from 2 to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Just bring your Memorial Pool badge (no guests admitted) and it's free.

The Radburn "B" pool off of Howard Avenue is an olmypic-size swimming pool that can accommodate about 300 people.

The Radburn "R" pool off of Sandford Road is somewhat smaller, and can handle about 200, Radburn manager David Bostock said. The “R” Pool can also be accessed by pathways leading to the park and pool across from Sheridan and Sherman Avenues

Because neither pool has a parking lot, visitors are asked to park in the Radburn School lot or use their best judgment when choosing a spot on the street.

If you want to swim past Sunday, then get to know Paramus. The Paramus Municipal Pool on Van Binsberger Boulevard will be open to Memorial Pool badgeholders through Labor Day weekend. 

Its hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and it will cost $5 per person per day.

One caveat -- they don't accept cash. The pool entrance fee must be paid by check.
