Intoducing the NEW Ron Belmont Pool Complex

Today, in a surprise announcement, the town's new pool complex in West Harrison was dedicated to Superintendent of Recreation Ron Belmont. On this Fourth of July, as we celebrate the birth of our country and the vision a few had 233 years ago, we also celebrate locally the vision one man has had for our community. Ron Belmont's hard work can be seen in the joy or town's residents have had participating in sports, programs and shows. Today, we see once again the result of Ron's work by officially opening the new "Ron Belmont Pool". This pool facility, which rivals any other of its kind, is a testament to Ron's leadership, vision and dedication to all of Harrison. I have been honored to not only work for Ron but now, work beside him for the future of Harrison. He truly deserves this honor. As a resident, I also would like to personally thank all the of town employees who joined Ron in the planning and building of this facility: Supervisor/Mayor Steve Malfitano who sparked this idea seven years ago, the entire Recreation Department Staff, Commissioner of Public Works Robert Wasp and his staff as well as Vito Forgione and his great landscaping work.
Congrautaltions Ron!
The new Ron Belmont Pool is now open seven days a week from now until Labor Day. The complex is located in West Harrison overlooking the lake. Residents are urged to visit this wonderful new facility equipped with a water park, two water slides, diving boards and a brand new concession stand. Bring the family and spend the day.
