Stephen P. Robertazzi
Director
Recreation & Parks
and Swim Pool Utility
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the residents of Cranford for
participating in the Recreation Department’s programs and activities. It is
because of your involvement the Department is thriving at an all-time high.
I would also like to recognize the staff at both the Recreation Department & the
Swim Pool Utility. They are the backbone of the operation, and without them,
we would not nearly be as successful as we are now. They give so much time
and energy to ensure residents and patrons are happy and satisfied at the end
of the day.
I would like to thank our Advisory Boards, who offer terrific insight and ideas for
both departments. They also play an instrumental role in the prosperity of the
Recreation Department & Swim Pool Utility.
Registration for the pools is going on now! Please visit us online at www.cranford.
com/pool for more information. And don’t miss out on the Recreation Department’s
Summer Playgrounds program! Remember, if any resident has a question or a
concern, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you.
Enjoy your spring & summer!
Sincerely,
