Donated Acreage Is Now A NEW Park in Girdletree

Earlier in 2012 the Girdletree Volunteer Fire Company donated 3 acres of land to the Worcester Parks and Recreation.   A local contractor, Paul W. Jones & Son of Girdletree began the site work required for the new Girdletree Neighborhood Park in May 2012.

The three acre site donated to Worcester County was to comprise of  two adjoining sections:  one for young children ages 2-5 and another for youth ages 6-12, with plans for a pavilion with grills and picnic tables, and a parking lot.

According to the Worcester County Parks and Recreation the Girdletree Park is NOW OPEN for a walk- through.  The playground/park is located at 5841 Box Iron Road in Gridletree, Md.  By May 2013 a pavilion will be completed.

Please be sure to thank the Girdletree Fire Department for their generous donation to the Worcester County Parks and Recreation.  The park is a wonderful asset to serve the community of Girdletree and the surrounding area.

For those of you living closer to the Pocomoke City area and Newtown Park on Groton Road you will be very pleased to know that the WCPR has  given the park a fresher look. 
 
A large pavilion great for family functions!
