Iron Senergy donates land for community park in Franklin Township
A Waynesburg-based mining company has donated land to Franklin Township in Greene County for use at the newly named Franklin Township Iron Senergy Park.
It is located at 252 Jefferson Road. The donation, valued at over $260,000, will support activities at the 15-acre park, including soccer, walking and fishing.
“This extremely generous donation from Iron Senergy will assure that the Franklin Township community and our residents will have access to quality recreation,” said Corbly L. Orndorff, chairman of the Franklin Township Board of Supervisors.
The donation will replace a long-term lease on the property with a formal deed transfer, and will allow the township to seek grant funding for upgrades to the park’s facilities.
