That's a shame. It says there are day passes available, but I guess they're only for the village residents.

I guess that's just another sign of the times. As a society's wealth gap increases, the general access to water and woods decreases. It's how rich people respond to the prospect of having to share resources with poorer people.

You'll see this a lot in other countries. Hell, you'll see that a lot here. Next time you're in the Florida Keys, try walking around and fishing the shorelines and canals. You'll end up in the back of a Monroe County police car - if you don't get shot first by a panicked beach-house owner.

huh, surprising. that kind of crap (parks being closed to non residents) has been illegal here in NJ for a decade.
I kind of hope it is. I have a three-acre pond by my house in Long Hill Township that I am verboten to fish because it's on property owned by the Clover Hill development.
