Westfield Washington Township Trustee Danielle Carey Tolan announced today the completion of new signage after the 15-acre reforestation wetland project at the township’s MacGregor Park. This year-long project was completed this month and signage has been installed and on display.
This project and signage was a priority for Township Trustee Danielle Carey Tolan this year. “I am thrilled to finally see the signage being installed and I encourage our community to visit MacGregor to learn about the amazing reforestation wetland project,” says Danielle Carey Tolan. “Since the expansion of MacGregor Park in both 2007 and 2012, this much-needed enhancement has been in the works.”
As part of the project, more than 50 new directional and interpretive signs were installed throughout MacGregor Park, providing visitors with maps, information and educational material about park history and ecology. “So many visitors enter the park and don’t experience the true beauty of MacGregor so I hope these signs help tell the park’s story and encourage additional exploration throughout the park,” says Carey Tolan.
To celebrate the new signs and Trustee Tolan’s commitment to environmental stewardship, Westfield Washington Township Parks and Recreation, Friends of MacGregor will host a walking day this spring. Join the festivities at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, April 19 at MacGregor Park to enjoy a walking tour of the park and celebrate Earth Day with Westfield Washington Township Parks and Recreation.
