The Parks and Recreation
Department is responsible for the overall
maintenance and development of five park
sites totaling 224 acres. The department
director,
Jim Watenpool, also plans,
organizes and supervises all Borough
recreational activities and events.
Recreation Mission Statement
The mission of the Franklin Park
Recreation Board is to organize recreational
and social activities for the benefit of
Borough residents and to advise Franklin Park
Borough Council on the development and
maintenance of safe, usable and aesthetically
pleasing recreational facilities.
Talents and Ideas
Do you have a special interest or
talent that you would be willing to share? It
may be your profession or something you just
enjoy doing. Perhaps you are a motivational
speaker, a lawyer, a cook, a mechanic, a
sports professional, a homemaker with some
special recipes or you know how to crochet,
quilt, sew, tie fly's, make crafts, have
artistic talents, or perhaps you can lead
exercise or have a special hobby. Your
talents are limitless. We would love to hear
from you and discuss how we may share your
talents through our programs. The Borough
programs can grow with your help and provide
the types of recreation you want. Do not be
afraid to offer ideas and talents. Each will
be evaluated for its potential as a program.
