The Park and Recreation Commission serves the recreational needs of Alexandria Township, New Jersey.
 
We are responsible for organizing and caring for the Township's recreation programs as well as the Township Park.

Community Day Fireworks moved to June 27th after the Concert.  Bring a blanket and a picnic.  Enjoy the music under the clear, open sky of Alexandria.  When the music stops, the fireworks start!

Big Happenings at the Park:
The Walking Trail is completed (Sept. 2008)!  Now the full perimeter of the park can be walked...a total of approximately 1.1 miles.  (Some helpful soul measured it at exactly 5,870 feet...which works out to 1.111742424 miles)
 
October 14th 2008--we held the ribbon cutting for the new basketball courts!  Two full-sized courts, plus two practice baskets.  Remember--it's "basketball only".  Please don't think we're trying to take away someone's fun, but the warranty on the playing surface is voided if we allow bikes, skateboards, roller blades or street hockey on the surface.
Some of the recreation programs and events we support:
Soccer, Fishing Derby, Basketball, Summer Recreation, Fitness Classes, Adult Basketball, Adult Volleyball, Community Day, and Summer Concerts in the Park
 
The Park is located at 242 Little York-Mount Pleasant Road and consists of about 90 acres; approximately half is open space.  We have two baseball/softball diamonds, four full-sized soccer/lacrosse fields, a wonderful playground called "Kidtopia", and walking trails (asphalt/gravel paths of ~1.1 miles; another mile of grass/mulch paths).  In October 2008, we added two full-sized basketball courts.  We have an equestrian facility with an indoor and outdoor riding arena, and horses may ride the nature trails and perimeter of the park.  We are currently expanding our disc golf course to a full 18 holes! (all through donations!).  Future plans include a pavilion (click on Friends of Alexandria Park to help), more parking, and a third baseball diamond.
Our spring 2008 survey of the Township determined how our facilities and programs are serving the Township; results can be seen in the attached PowerPoint Show (link below).
