Parks

Lower Nazareth Township believes in recreation facilities for residents of all ages. Preservation of open space for active activities and passive forms such as hiking, fishing, picnicking are a priority. Lower Nazareth is continuously adding public recreational facilities to the township.

      SPLASH PARK

      You’ve been patient…and it’s finally here! The Newburg Park Splash pad will open on Saturday, August 24th at 10:00 am! .

      The water features do time out after a period of time. You just need to go to the back of the pad and hit the button!

      As a reminder, the splash pad is for humans only. No dogs allowed.

      The splash pad will continue to operate this season as long as the weather is above 70 degrees!

      We thank you for your patience and understanding as we worked through some challenges in getting this park feature up and running

      When the Splash Pad opens, the passes will be sold at the Municipal Office, Monday-Friday, 7:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.  Please note there is no limit to the passes that are available for purchase, only a capacity limit at the park.
