Bergen County Parks provide a safe place for people to gather, connect, learn, and relax. Each park throughout the County has a story worth telling, a story of countless experiences and fond memories. It is thanks to the dedicated efforts of Bergen County Parks staff that we can continue to add new chapters to our story. 

In recognition of National Park and Recreation Month, we went out into the field to ask for our Bergen County Parks staff about their #ParkandRecStory in their own words. 

This week, Cindy Norton spoke about her time working as the Zoo Curator at the Bergen County Zoo.
