The Bergen County golf courses, pickleball and tennis courts are now open for the spring season.
The seven pickleball and tennis courts and the six county-owned golf courses are now open and ready for the public, County Executive Jim Tedesco said.
“Our parks system provides our residents with spaces to stay active and enjoy the outdoors," Tedesco said. "I encourage everyone to take advantage of our incredible facilities and make the most of this beautiful spring weather.”
