2013 Earth Camp PDF Print E-mail
Written by Steve Lott   

Description:

Join this exciting opportunity to have fun summer adventures in an outdoor setting.  Earth Camp is for children who will be entering 5th, 6th, or 7th grade in the fall of 2013.

Earth Camp is packed with recreation, education, and exploration, and full of rich programming including canoeing, fishing, nature crafts, hiking, sports, team building activities, photography, games, rocketry, and much more.  We also have two off-site camp days, one at Birchwood Tennis and Racquet Club for a day of tennis instruction and fun and the other at Keystone College to participate in their Water Interpretive Trail.  We also will have visits from experts in pottery and golf who will share their skills.

The campers will participate in experiential learning as we lay the groundwork for life-long learning about the natural world.  There will be opportunities for personal growth, collaboration, and new friendships as the campers are immersed in enriching activities.  Most importantly, every day of earth camp will be fun-filled and exciting and will keep the campers wanting more!

Sponsors:

Abington Area Joint Recreation Board and Keystone College are partners in offering this enriching, educational outdoor camp. The camp is also supported by donations from the Abington Education Improvement Organization, EarthBox, Lackawanna Heritage Valley Authority, Lahey Family Fun Park, Wegmans.

Lighted Turf Field Open PDF Print E-mail
Written by Diane Vietz   
The Turf Field at Hillside Park is ready for action, as substantial completion of construction has been met. That means that teams and residents can begin to use the synthetic surface field.
A field reservation system is being phased in during a 'soft-opening' timeframe and a link to TURF FIELD is found on the left side of this Home Page. Click HERE to read the provisional Policy for Turf Field Reservation and access.
Clarks Green Borough has been instrumental in securing hundreds of thousands of dollars in park improvements, by partnering with the AAJRB as the technical applicant for 3 different state grants.
In addition local youth soccer, football and cheerleading organizations have donated more than $300,000 toward the lighted turf field and handicpped access project.
While the project centerpiece is the lighted field, significant improvements to interior pathways and parking have created all-accessible pathways and access as part of the project. Now park visitors can travel on paved walkways from the Boundless Playground and Rest Rooms to the Turf Field, the Handicapped Fishing Docks, Pavilion and Lakeside Boardwalk.
