Dear Resident,
The state announced relaxed COVID guidelines for both indoor and outdoor gatherings beginning this Friday including the complete removal of outdoor gathering limits effective May 19 and so we are very excited to announce ‘Welcome Back Concert and Fireworks’ on August 8 and ‘Marlboro Day’ on September 12. More details soon, but in the meantime, please mark your calendars!
The Marlboro Swim Club was a respite for many in summer, 2020. This year, we will open on Memorial Day weekend and, in accordance with Department of Health and COVID guidelines, reservations will not be required and guests are welcome weekends, weekdays and holidays. Please see the FLYER for more.
