MANHEIM ADVENTURE EVENTS
Phase 1A of the Manheim Adventure Recreation Park has begun. Phase 1A will be leveling approximately 5 acres on Camp Woods Road for an athletic field and parking.
There has been lots of activity at the Manheim Recreation Park this summer; it has been a true Manheim Adventure. We have been moving dirt, LOTS OF IT! Silt fence has been installed and the majority of the 4 acres has been leveled. We have been very fortunate to have donations of equipment, operations and materials from companies and individuals. Fuel costs have been a major expense for this phase—additional monetary donations are always welcome.
Special recognition to the following individuals and companies: Lynn Smith & Ed Townsend—you guys are awesome Waggonner Construction—operations and equipment Greg McGrew—donation of equipment James Ambrosius Paving—donation of equipment Ruhlman Brothers—donation of equipment Dan Lucabaugh– donation of lots of time Nate Osbourne—silt Fence donation Doll Family—straw donation Hanover Land Services, Inc.—donation of approved erosion control plan.
The township has also applied for a DCNR Matching Grant. With this additional money we will be able to expand the park to include playground equipment and walking trails. The grant was applied for in April 2008 if our project is select notifications are sent in the September 2008 timeframe with funds available in November 2008. We are excited to see our plans coming to fruition. This park will be an asset to our community providing a place for everyone to enjoy—walking, sports and more.
