Dear Residents,

Memorial Beach is open and summer is finally here!

Mount Arlington is proud to honor those who served our nation and paid the ultimate price for our freedoms. Our thanks to Acting Borough Clerk Ashley Todd, Assistant Administrator Lauren Schaeffner, Department of Public Works and our Police Department for coordinating a successful Memorial Day Parade and Ceremony, our Fire Department’s honor guard for presenting the colors and the Lake Hopatcong Veterans Committee for raising the flags at the ceremony. A special thank you to long-time Borough resident Mr. David Gardner and his “A-Team” who for many years have been the red shirts behind the scenes coordinating staging of the parade line up. We couldn’t do it without them! We appreciate all our Borough Veterans who participated in the day including our Grand Marshal Mr. Harold Johnson. Mr. Johnson is a Korean Veteran and we were honored to have him lead the parade and speak at the Ceremony. Thank you also to our guest speaker from Picatinny Arsenal Sgt Faegist Adlam and Commissioner Doug Cabana for participating. Lastly our gratitude to the Elks Lodge #782 for not only their participation in the parade and ceremony, but graciously inviting ALL in attendance back to the lodge. Thank you to all of you who joined us to remember our fallen heroes.
