Community Park
At 305 acres, Murrysville Community Park is Murrysville's largest
park and designed to be a central meeting place for people by offering
a variety of active and passive recreational opportunities. Four
sports fields
are currently in use, a two-mile walking and bicycling trail was
completed by volunteers in early 2008. The trail has connections
to the Walter Nature Reserve and the Caywood Reserve. A dog
park donated by a generous local family be open in 2010.
The wetland area, built with funds due to the widening of Route
22, is a delightful place to view the many birds and critters unique
to this type of area, and its pavilion provides a place for enviromental
classes and recreational activities. A sand path around the wetlands
is easy to walk.
Near the entrance to the park, Murrysville is restoring a Sears
Craftsman house that was the home of the Cline family, the previous
owners of the property.
