The Edgmont Township Community Park

The Park is located at 800 Gradyville Road, adjacent to the Township Office. This is the Township’s first and only municipally owned recreational facility. The park is approximately three (3) acres and offers visitors a large playset with slides, swings, and activities for all ages. The park includes picnic tables, benches, a pet waste station, a walking trail, and a multi-purpose field; perfect for kicking balls, throwing frisbees, or just relaxing. There is plenty of available parking, and full ADA access to all areas of the park. 
 
 
The Township was successful in securing grants and donations to cover a large amount of the park construction costs. A huge thank you to the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) for granting the Township $220,000, the Department of Conservation and Economic Development for granting the Township approximately $218,000, TreeVitalize for granting the Township approximately $8,000, Buckeye Pipeline for its donation of $8,500, PECO Green Region Open Space Program for granting the Township $5,000 to install swings, Toll Brothers Inc. for their donation of fill dirt, and Randy Bates for his donation of several mature trees!
 
 
The most recent upgrades to the Township Community Park include ADA accessible swings, picnic tables, and benches, ADA approved playground mulch, and a swing shade canopy. The Township was successful in securing $98,000, in grant funding from the Pennsylvania Department of Natural Resources, PECO, and Delaware County to make these additions possible. The Township is so grateful for the support, which has helped our vision come to life!
 
 
Our Park is open from dawn until dusk, and we hope you give it a visit soon.
