Filmmaker & TV Host Justin Fornal takes a four mile swim on Newark’s Passaic (that ended at our Riverfront Park!) to promote “positive aspects of a city more often noted for crime, violence and corruption.”
“I’ve always thought of Newark as kind of a sister city. The Passaic is a cool river – it’s a fascinating, historic river. Newark is a city that has so many positive things and so much talent,” he said.
We couldn’t agree more with Justin’s point of view on Newark!
