Saturday, May 16 – Grand Opening of Bristol Township Community Park from 11:00 am until 4:00 pm!! Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Opening Event. Along with our ribbon cutting ceremony, this entirely FREE event (with the exception of vendor items and food for purchase) will feature the start-up of our new spray park, opening of our new playground, live music in our new amphitheater, bounce houses, face painting, balloon art, roaming characters (princesses, super heroes, etc.), and more activities than any event we've ever hosted! This new intergenerational park space will offer events and activities across generations, such as special events, concerts, movies, walking trails and outdoor sports. People who take part in recreational activities, especially outdoors, can greatly improve physical health, schedule fewer office visits, maintain lower body fat percentages, and have lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Bristol Township Senior Center is excited to partner with Bristol Township Department of Parks and Recreation in this grand opening event. In addition to launching new center walking programs, as well as promoting our community gardens and environmental projects. We will be also providing food and beverages for sale from the new concession building. This is especially important to us, as we lost all our events and rentals income this past year due to all the construction in the Bristol Township municipal complex, where we are located. In addition to growing our programs and introducing new programs, we are excited to have the opportunity to provide concessions for Township events this year. This will help us to start recovering from some of our past year losses. We hope you will join us by volunteering for our Grand Opening celebration!!!
