Excerpt from Percussion Play: Outdoor Musical Instruments:
Great public spaces draw people together, bring communities alive, generate pride and a sense of belonging, they foster connections and create opportunities. Lions Pride Park in Chalfont, Pennsylvania has managed all of this while breathing new life into a disused space. The popular outdoor space has even been named one of 2021’s Great Places in Pennsylvania by the American Planning Association’s Pennsylvania Chapter in the category of ‘Great Public Spaces’.
From conception to completion, community participation has been vital. Created from a shared vision of the local Lions Club, Warrington Township, and local school students, the park is a model of accessibility and intergenerational use that is exciting, attractive, and engaging for people of all ages and abilities.
Many thanks to Percussion Play!
