History

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation organized in the early 1950's. 

Money to purchase and improve the land was raised by public subscription in the early 1950's as a memorial to all those who have served in the armed forces.  Over the years a basketball court, baseball field, small recreation building, picnic shelter and playground have been added.  Use is open to the public during daylight hours in good climate weather.

Over the years many groups have used the park on a regular basis including Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Teen Center, Little League, Slo Pitch Teams and Church Groups.  On any given day the facilities are used regularly on an informal basis.

Most of our playground equipment came to us after the closing of our last country school in 1956.  We have added pieces from time to time as money permitted, including our 2002 project purchase for the younger child.  Many families like to bring their children here where there is plenty of room to run and play.  The high cost of recreation equipment has impelled us to seek grants and donations from outside the township.

The Town of Sheridan, NY has used the facility for its annual summer recreation program since the mid 1950's and contributes to our budget but does not have the means to operate its own facility.

We have a large group of volunteers that help make the difference between public ability and community need.  Our volunteers contribute time, money, equipment and materials!
