NY Jets, Partners Built PLAY 60 Fitness Zone for Riverdale, N.J. Public School

As part of the Jets’ Hometown Huddle project, the New York Jets, in collaboration with Dunkin’, New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU), and United Way of Northern New Jersey, helped build a new PLAY 60 Fitness Zone for Riverdale Public School in Riverdale, N.J. 

The Atlantic Health Jets Women’s Organization, comprised of the many women who are affiliated with the team, including staff members, significant others of coaches, players, and football personnel, along with the women of United Way Women United, Dunkin’, NJBPU, and the Florham Park Teachers Union volunteered their time to build the fitness zone with Sinclair Recreation on October 20. 

The play space features an obstacle course with monkey bars, climbers, a lily pad bridge, four slides, and more. The playground not only provides an environment that facilitates play, but also allows students to develop strength and practice fine motor skills. 

The Jets unveiled the new PLAY 60 Fitness Zone for the 27th Annual Hometown Huddle Day of Service at Riverdale Public School on October 21. The 17 members of the Jets 2025 Rookie Class – Armand Membou, Mason Taylor, Azareye’h Thomas, Arian Smith, Malachi Moore, Kiko Mauigoa, Tyler Baron, Brady Cook, Jordan Clark, Dean Clark, Ja’Markis Weston, Leander Wiegand, Esa Pole, Payton Page, Jamaal Pritchett, Quentin Skinner, and Fatorma Mulbah – exercised with students from Riverdale Public School on the new Fitness Zone. 

The $150,000 playground build was made possible with contributions from the Jets Foundation, Dunkin’, and NJBPU.
