Friends of Penn-Trafford Area Recreation Commission is a non-profit, tax-exempt Pennsylvania corporation created in order to provide funding for community organizations, including the Penn-Trafford Area Recreation Commission, to support community projects, recreational programs and activities and community development projects

Friends of Penn-Trafford Area Recreation Commission's goal is to raise funds to renovate existing parks and recreation facilities in the Penn-Trafford area and develop new parks and recreation facilities for our residents to enjoy.

Friends of Penn-Trafford Area Recreation is asking community-minded organizations and individuals to volunteer, donate materials, labor, and/or time to assist in the completion of these projects.

Parks and recreation facilities provide:

• Places for families to hold birthday parties, bridal and baby showers,
  graduation parties, and anniversary celebrations.
• Facilities for parents and caregivers to take pre-school children for fun
  activities, outdoor exercise, and early childhood education.
• Places for after-school activities, club meetings, fitness, nature, and fun
  activities for school-aged children.
• Facilities for life-long learning, fitness, and wellness activities for adults.
• Places for seniors to gather, socialize, participate in activities, and exercise.
