Swimming Area Closed
at Spruce Run Recreation Area
Due to a shortage of lifeguards, the state
Department of Environmental Protection's Division of Parks
and Forestry will close the swimming area at Spruce Run
Recreation Area as of Sunday, August 19.
The shortage is due to the fact that many
of the lifeguards are college students returning to school.
Swimmers will be referred to the nearby Round Valley Recreation
Area where the swimming area is fully staffed and open.

the public to visit other State Park Service swimming facilities
