Mercersburg Park Overview

The included pictures can let you all see a conceptual drawing of the proposed park.  While this is just  an example of what is possible, it shows our desired layout, the use of the land, and how it will make a little bit of something for everyone.  The three key aspects of the park are the off-leash dog area to the west side of the park, the modern playground with a handicapped accessible area, and a concrete skatepark.  Providing a safe, modern, easily accessible park in the heart of Mercersburg is ideal.   We are working with the town and hopefully soon the state to secure the use of the old Tannery Site on Oregon St across from Romeo's Pizza.  This area is level, open, and accessible.  It would be possible to work through any issue to ensure a safe, modern, and fun park.  With access for the handicapped, picnic benches, ample parking, and professional installation, this park can be the pride of the town.  We believe this park is good for the town beyond providing access for our residents to recreate.  A modern and well-kept park attracts families to our town, making home sales here more attractive.  Similarly families from the surrounding community will come here to recreate, spend their money, and increase the possibility of Mercersburg as a destination rather than a thoroughfare.  If this park interests you, contact us on this page, or via Facebook at Skate Mercersburg.https://www.facebook.com/SkateMercersburg?ref=hl

Welcome to Mercersburg Park Blog

Welcome to our park blog.  We are interested in creating a park in Mercersburg PA that has all the elements of a first class park.  Our initial intention is to create a playground, off leash dog run, a skatepark, and some picnic areas.  This will address many of the issues our town has right now without an updated and safe place for our children to play, our dogs to run freely, and our community to relax.  Our idea is to use the Tannery site, on Oregon Ave.  We believe that this site could be ideal for the types of recreation we envision.  It is central for all in the community, it is easy to get to, it has enough space, and with a little preparation can be a great park.  Of course there are issues that still need to be addressed, but overall it can work as we envision.  If you are a person in our community who would like to join us in our quest for a park, please consider supporting it financially as well as actively.  Come to our announced meetings, help us raise funds to build it, volunteer your time to help plan it, build it, and keep it clean.  All these actions will bring a great resource to our community with a maximum benefit to our community.  Contact us via Facebook at "Skate Mercersburg".
