In June of
1991, Chestnuthill Township purchased a 34 acre tract of
land adjacent to the municipal building on Route 715 in
Brodheadsville. The transaction signaled the beginning of
Chestnuthill Township Park. To say that the Chestnuthill
Township Park has something for everyone is indeed an
understatement. Whatever your interest or fitness level may
be, you’re sure to find plenty of ways to enjoy this
community facility. Just beyond the parking area, there is
likely to be plenty of activity at the
basketball courts. Pass the courts and community
center to its left, the crack of baseball bats and cheers of
the crowds on the
all
purpose field create a festive atmosphere. And the
sounds of children playing in the nearby
playground
always are a joy to hear.
Happen to
be feeling especially active, how about a walk or jog along
the
paved trail?
Suitable for bicycles and skates this paved trail borders
the perimeter of the park. If that’s not enough to get your
heart pumping, perhaps a game of
volleyball!
Our volleyball court is fully equipped with net and real
sand! Or
enjoy a relaxing game of
bocce ball
on our official court.
Our
pavilions
are available for rental for birthday parties, family
reunions and corporate events. All activities at the park
are handicap accessible.
Chestnuthill Township Park has been progressing well over
the years, but there is still much that needs to be done.
Why not show your support by becoming a volunteer? To
volunteer your services or make suggestions, contact the
Park Committee Chairman, Chris Thompsett, at (570) 992-7247.
Or attend a park committee meeting held at 7pm on the first
Wednesday of each month at the Chestnuthill Park Building on
Route 715 in Brodheadsville.
