The goal of the Hopewell Township Parks & Recreation Department is to provide a comprehensive array of recreation and leisure services for the entire Hopewell Valley community. 

Now in our 13th year, we are pleased to continue our service to the residents of Hopewell Township and our neighboring municipalities of Pennington Borough and Hopewell Borough with quality programs and events.

The success of the Hopewell Township Parks & Recreation Department is due in large part to the support and participation we receive from the Hopewell Valley community.  We pride ourselves in offering relevant programs that are enjoyed by our teens, families and seniors and look forward to providing great recreation opportunities as we continue to grow.

The department publishes two annual seasonal brochures that are mailed to every resident. The current Spring/Summer 2013 Program Guide details a wide variety of community trips, senior citizens programs, and youth & teen activities.  This spring & summer we invite you to join us as we travel to Annapolis for a guided bus tour and a narrated cruise along the beautiful Severn River.  We also have trips planned to the Brandywine Valley to visit the Hagley Museum and gardens of this DuPont Estate.  This summer there are trips planned to several quaint seaside towns including Stone Harbor, Ocean Grove and Smithville as we launch our “It’s a Shore Thing” series.  Other trips include “Motown the Musical” on Broadway and a return trip to Penn’s Peak to hear the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra.  The popular “Home Run” Baseball series returns as we travel to some great baseball stadiums to see our favorite teams in action.  In addition to these community trips, the HTPRD also sponsors summer camps for youth and teens including Art In The Park, Skate Camp, Golf, Tennis, Baseball, Wrestling, Multi-sport, Soccer & Field Hockey Camps, and we have added a first play lacrosse camp this year.  For our teen’s, don’t forget to check out the ever popular Teen Travel Camp for a summer of great fun as we travel to amusement parks, beaches, themed restaurants, outdoor adventures and so much more…. and our overnight trip will take us back to Busch Gardens, Williamsburg!
