The Great Newburgh to Beacon
7th Annual Hudson River Swim
JULY 31st, 2010
Water quality report
The greatest concern that people have about swimming in the Hudson
is that the water is not clean. That's not a problem here, our six
years of testing show. Read our report to learn more about how clean the water really is.
Also see the results on water testing by Riverkeeper.

The design of the partially submerged pool is environmentally sensitive and makes for a safe wading area that protects bathers from boaters and currents. With a permeable floor and sides that work as a below-water fence, the twenty-foot diameter wading pool allows river water to flow through it. The entire structure is supported by floating fiberglass seats in rainbow colors.
River Pool is a non-profit volunteer organization. To help with this project Please Join Us!
Much of the Hudson River is clean enough to swim in and we are working to keep it that way. Learn more about River Pool in this article from Metropolis magazine written by Aki Busch.
