Pool Parties Def Back on the Waterfront, Agreement Signed, Slip N' Slide May Return!

Jelly just confirmed what Colin wrote and Gothamist reported yesterday, as they officially announced the return of the Pool Parties this summer, revealing that Senator Chuck Schumer and “the good people at OSA and State Parks” granted their wishes to hold the concerts right there on the waterfront for a second summer.
Also, the slip n’ slide might make it’s return! Maybe? They write: “If the slip ‘n’ slide does indeed get to come back, we officially invite you guys to take the inaugural dive!!”
Here’s the rest:

“We are pleased to announce, with confidence, that thanks to a great deal of help from Senator Chuck Schumer and the good people at OSA and State Parks, we have a signed an agreement to keep Pool Parties at East River State Park this summer! We are looking forward to spending the fifth year anniversary of Pool Parties back on Williamsburg Waterfront and trust that we have some MAJOR surprises in store for you! Come visit us on the waterfront from July 11th‚ÄîAugust 29th and let’s celebrate 5 big years of free fun in the sun!!!”

And with that, Schumer has successfully locked down the hipster vote.
