Families come up winners at Oradell Reservoir Day

It was a great day to get out on the Oradell Reservoir on Saturday, the special day each year when Veolia invites the public to get out on the water in kayaks and canoes. Hundreds came to enjoy races and to explore the reservoir.

Meanwhile, the fish were biting at the Youth Fishing Derby, sponsored b y Veolia and the Hackensack Riverkeeper.

Brandon Kim, 8, of Old Tappan is the winner of the Youth Fishing Derby. He managed to snag nine fish.

Missed it? You can still enjoy Lake DeForest on June 17 and Lake Tappan on Sept. 9.
