The John and Kathy Howard Park at Wenonah Lake
Flanking the northeast corner of the borough, Wenonah Lake has been enjoyed for generations and is a continued source of pride for our residents. We are excited about the many upcoming renovations to this beautiful, natural recreation area. We are grateful for the continued collaboration of the Wenonah Lake Association in helping to maintain, upgrade and bring wonderful community programs and events to this venue. This year, the Wenonah Native Plant Garden Club will begin work rehabbing some areas as well!
The park grounds are open daily to the public from the day after Labor Day through the day before Memorial Day Weekend, from dawn to dusk. Swimming is not permitted during public park hours. During the summer swim season (Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day), the park is closed to the general public. Throughout the year, the park may be closed on occasion for private events and at the discretion of the Borough based on scheduled work or grounds keeping needs. For pavilion rental and links to other information about the lake, see below.
