Schuylkill Twp. Gets $100K For Valley Park Improvements

An outdoor classroom, parking area, walkways, and more are coming to Valley Park.

SCHUYLKILL TOWNSHIP, PA — An outdoor classroom, parking area, walkways, and more are coming to Valley Park, thanks to $100,000 in funding from the state, local officials announced recently.

The funding is part of more than $4 million in funding to outdoor projects across Chester County, State Sen. Andy Dinniman announced. The money comes from the Community Conservation Partnerships Program.

“Chester County’s rolling hills, pristine streams and beautiful parks are some of the very reasons that make it such a great place to call home,” Dinniman said in a statement. “These grant funds will help us continue to build on our success in protecting our land, water, and environmental resources, while also increasing recreational opportunities for residents and families throughout the area.”
