  • The PBS Moving in the Park Event scheduled at Tom Tudek Park on July 17th has also been canceled.

Tom Tudek Dog Park Large Pen Closure: The Large Dog Pen will be closed beginning Thursday, May 14 to allow for reseeding and other maintenance improvements. During this time, large dogs will be redirected to the third pen. To support healthy turf establishment and allow the newly seeded areas to properly take hold, the affected pen is expected to remain closed through at least the fall season. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we complete these improvements.

Construction at Oak Hall Regional Park: Visitors are advised that the College Township Water Authority will be conducting construction work at Oak Hall Regional Park beginning Monday, March 23. Work is expected to continue through 2026 as part of a larger well and water system improvement project. Please use caution, follow posted signage, and be mindful of active construction areas during your visit.

Please note all 2026 Office Closures to see when CRPR offices are closed.
