Wind Gap Borough has received a $130,000 grant to develop the Wind Gap Park Pavilion in Northampton County. The funding comes from the Commonwealth Financing Authority’s Greenways, Trails and Recreation Program, which is managed by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development.
Rep. Ann Flood (R-Northampton) announced the grant, emphasizing its impact on the local community. “This grant will help create a welcoming space at Wind Gap Park that families, seniors and youth can enjoy for outdoor activities, community events and everyday recreation,” said Flood. “I am proud to secure resources that improve quality of life, promote outdoor recreation and support vibrant, healthy communities.”
The Greenways, Trails and Recreation Program supports projects across Pennsylvania aimed at planning, developing, rehabilitating and improving parks, recreation areas, greenways, trails and river conservation efforts. The new funding is expected to enhance recreational opportunities in Wind Gap Borough while strengthening local infrastructure.
The improvements are intended to provide residents with a place to gather for celebrations and to enjoy outdoor activities within their community.
