    Dog Run Dedication

    May 7, 2023

    The Community Park committee thanked the Nicoteri family for donating the Dog Run and memorial to their son, David J. Nicoteri. Family and friends gathered at the park to recognize and thank those who generously donated their time and efforts to build the Dog Run. 


    Thank you to Bob Noldy for installing the fencing, his son, Jake Noldy for the use of his auger, Tim and Denise Kries for donating an Amish poly-constructed bench, and many others who donated their time. 


    The Dog Run is the first step in revitalizing the five acres that have been unused for many years and has been well received by dog owners and the Greenfield Township community. The Park committee is looking forward to starting construction on the parking lot and walking trail as well as putting finishing touches on the Dog Run.


    The Park committee is grateful for all the messages from the community asking how they can help with the Community Park and Veterans Memorial with their time or donating materials, landscaping, benches, trashcans, pavilions and so much more.

    OVERVIEW


    On December 30, 2021, the Greenfield Township Supervisors and Park Committee received $70,000 for the SMALL COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT Grant that was submitted on April 14, 2021. 


    On October 5, 2023, DCNR awarded $60,000 to the Greenfield Township Supervisors and Park Committee for Phase 2 to build an ADA-accessible playground. 


    The Park has been renamed GREENFIELD TOWNSHIP COMMUNITY PARK for a broader appeal to township residents, families, and surrounding communities to enjoy outdoor recreational activities and honor our service members. 


    The park currently features a Veterans Memorial flagpole and Reflection Garden, walking trail and enclosed dog run.  A playground will be constructed this summer.
