Summer Starts Here: Creating Community Through Parks and Recreation
As summer begins in Upper Macungie Township, parks and recreation programs continue to play a vital role in bringing residents together and enhancing quality of life throughout the community. From concerts, movie nights, camps, and festivals to park improvements and the future Community Lifestyle Center, recreation creates opportunities for connection, wellness, and community pride.
The Wall That Heals: Team Collaboration at its Finest
From July 10 to 13, Montgomery Township will host The Wall That Heals, a three-quarter scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, at Windlestrae Park. Open 24 hours a day and featuring a Mobile Education Center, the exhibit offers a meaningful space for reflection, remembrance, and learning. The experience begins with a Ceremonial Motorcycle Escort on July 8, traveling from Valley Forge National Park through Montgomery County with hundreds of motorcyclists and emergency vehicles. Planning this six-day event has required months of collaboration across Township departments, partner agencies, and community volunteers to bring this powerful tribute to life.
