Sharon Hill Memorial Park is host to the Sharon Hill Borough Cultural and Arts commission events…read more Often you'll find vendors, food trucks music along with the playground in this park. This playground park is very clean and I would recommend it to anyone. The only downside is Parking comes at a premium as the park does not have a parking lot and it is in a residential area. Additionally it's neighbor is a church the overflow of parking on Sunday from the church may make it difficult. Nice relaxing park and well-kept with entertainment I'll visit again and again.

My daughter loves this park,…read more Clean the children are usually friendly and play together. They have all of the basic playground stuff for the kids, slides swings and other things. The only issue I have found is that when it's crowded it's hard to find close parking space but over all I recommend this playground. This was remodeled about 4 years ago before that it was a mess.

Visited: Sunday - November 15, 2015 - 10:00AM…read more The "first-to-review" of P E. is spot on. Armed with a cup of hot coffee and bathed in warm sunny day, I visited this tranquil oasis. My lady friend and I walked around and through the park in a leisurely fashion. The bright sun reflected off the lake in blinding but welcoming fashion. As we walked, a flock of geese, majestically landed in virtual unison. We returned to the car carefully avoiding the little "gifts' left on the ground by the feathered flock.

It's right next to a school so you might want to avoid it during certain hours if you are seeking peace and tranquility near the lake's fountain. There are lots of Canada geese here so look out for lots of droppings during certain times of the year.

I struggle with the trash in the marshes, I am not sure if it is the wind picking it up but I hope there can be more effort cleaning up. It was also extremely sad to see the turtles covered in oil which seems like pollutants from the water. Nonetheless, the trails are nice to walk on. The trails have no elevation but are nicely graveled.

Another historic gem in Delco, which was home to a signer of the Delclaration of Independence…read more (Below info from Wiki and the Morton Project Websites): The homestead was founded in 1654 by Morton Mortenson, a Finnish immigrant, however, the structure itself, was originally constructed circa 1698. The Morton Homestead was home to Morton Mortenson, and subsequent Morton family members. The Homestead sits in what was once the colony of New Sweden, and it is one of the oldest buildings in Pennsylvania. Morton Homestead is now part of Morton Homestead State Park in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. Parts of the current house date back to the 1698 with a large addition constructed in the 18th century. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. Mortenson's great-grandson, John Morton, signed the Declaration of Independence. John Morton cast the tie-breaking vote for independence as a member of the Pennsylvania delegation to the Continental Congress in 1776. John Morton is absent from many stories of American independence, but historical records paint a different picture. Morton's service included representing Pennsylvania in the mysterious Stamp Act Congress that adopted a Declaration of Rights and Grievances for the British government. He was later chosen as a Pennsylvania delegate to the First Continental Congress and selected again for the Second Continental Congress, where he cast the decisive ballot that swung the Pennsylvania delegation over to an affirmative vote for independence.

Intro to Rock Climbing with Valley to Summit on September 18, 2022…read more This was my second trip to Chickies Rock with VTS and it was wonderful! There were only 5 of us, so plenty of time to climb. Our Guide, Bob, was so patient, engaged and informative. I learned a lot of great things that I had not known before about clothing, ropes and technique. Bob was so patient with me and was there with his " green pointer" to help me over the tough spots. You should know that I am 74 years old and tho I have climbed indoors for a few years, my stamina was not that of the youngsters who were there! Nonetheless, it was a great time! I highly recommend Valley to Summit, this being my 3 rd trip with them. They Rock!

Absolutely amazing professional guides!!…read more I hired this company to guide me through the winters treacherous water fall trails of Ricketts Glen that is normally closed off for hikers that don't have the explicitly specific required safety gear for winter hikes which this company provides. The guides were patient and helpful with the small group in getting gear on and going over all the safety equipment. They were never impatient with anyone and insanely kind. You could tell the guides truly enjoyed bringing everyone out to this amazing trail at Ricketts Glen State Park. I wasn't sure what to expect but OMG it was worth the money spent to have these guys/gals guide me through the trails. I took tons of pictures and was never rushed at all while taking in the views and photos. This company comes highly recommended amongst the hiking community even out of state.

This is the home of the Academy Park Knights football, lacrosse, track and field teams. There is a…read morefootball/soccer field as well as a track around the outside with long jump and triple jump pits. There is a pressbox, stadium seating, and for some events, they open the snack shack. When the weather is nice there are 2-3 port-a-potties that are posted just outside the track area. Adjacent is the tennis courts that are in good shape. It's nice to see the community using these facilities during the day and in the evening hours after the high school sports teams have finished. Across the street is Rambler Field, a couple of basketball courts, a small playground & a chess/checkers board.
