Please plan to visit any of our
community parks!
The Parks and Recreation
Department is responsible for the overall
maintenance and development of five park
sites totaling 224 acres. The department
director and assistant director also plan,
organize and supervise 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.
Recreation Board Position Open
Two positions have opened up for
our Recreation Board. We are looking for
people that are enthusiastic about recreation and
providing for their community. There are certain procedures
that would need to be followed if you have interests in
becoming a member. Please contact Jim Watenpool at (412)
364-4115 Ext. 318 for more information.
