PARKS AND RECREATION:

Please check www.perkasierec.com for a list of current Park and Recreation offerings.

For Borough Park Trail Snow Information, please refer to Resolution #2008-34:

“Snow plowing of streets and roadways, park service drives, municipal parking lots, sidewalks on Borough-owned properties, and any emergency needs are to take priority over snow removal. However, removal of snow from the designated areas is to be a priority of plowing of snow from municipal bike paths.”

The Borough trails will be cleared when possible, but snow and ice covered areas may remain for an extended period of time after a storm. Surfaces may be slippery. Residents may still access the parks for winter recreation activities; however, they do so at their own risk.

All Perkasie Borough PLAYGROUNDS are open to the public. We strongly recommend continuing precautions around social distancing, masking and hand hygiene. Please do not visit the playgrounds if you feel ill. Cover your cough. Playgrounds are high contact structures and are not sanitized. Play at your own risk.

We are accepting park and pavilion reservations for groups of under 250 people.  Please email our Park and Recreation Department at parkandrec@perkasieborough.org with your request. Reminder, any gathering over 50 people needs Council approval, please submit your permit at least 45 days in advance.
