Fall events and programs planned; specialty camps struggled with enrollment

Lower Makefield Township Park and Recreation Advisory Board · August 12, 2026

Summary

Staff previewed two 9/11 ceremonies, the Halloween Monster Mash (Oct. 2), Color Run (Oct. 11), Veterans Parade (Nov. 14) and a December 10 charter trip; specialty camps saw low enrollment and seven were canceled this summer.

Staff provided an events and programs update: the township will hold two 9/11 ceremonies (a morning program at 8:30 a.m. and an evening candle‑lighting at 5:30 p.m.), a Halloween Monster Mash on Oct. 2, a Color Run on Oct. 11 that benefits accessibility projects, a Veterans Parade on Nov. 14, and a limited‑space charter trip to New York City on Dec. 10.

Staff said volunteers are needed, particularly for the Color Run and Veterans Parade. They also reported that several specialty summer camps were canceled for low enrollment (seven cancellations), though specialty camp revenue totaled $13,790 — higher than last year largely because of a second week of volleyball camp. The board encouraged staff to improve advance notices to outside user groups when park sections will be closed for events to avoid scheduling conflicts.
