About Us
Preservation of areas for public enjoyment began in 1964 with the purchase of the man-made fire pond on Alumni Avenue followed by the Jacob Reiff Farmstead in 1966. However, the main stage for today's park system and subsequent community path development was set in the early 1970's with Lower Salford's adoption of the federal, state and county sponsored "Open Space/Green Belt" program. Its primary objective was to promote the acquisition of contiguous stream valley meadows and woodlands which would serve as buffers against over development and provide public parks for all to enjoy.
