NOTICE ANYTHING NEW?
The Township Municipal Tract, Crawford Park and Pharo Park are sporting some new Recycling containers!
In September 2011 the Township applied for a Greenways Mini-Grant with “Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful” and was awarded a $500.00 grant. The total cost for the containers was $1,151.43 with the Township paying the difference of $651.43.
In efforts to extend the Township Recycling; we ask that while you visit these parks, take notice to the containers and partner with the Township to increase recycling and to keep are parks clean and litter free!
This project was funded in part by a grant provided by Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful and the Community Conservation Partnership Program, Environmental Stewardship Fund, under the administration of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Recreation and Conservation.
