Palmerton Memorial Park Association

For generations, the Palmerton Memorial Park has been where summer memories are made.

It’s where children learn to swim, families gather on sunny afternoons, neighbors reconnect, and lifelong traditions begin. For almost 80 years, the park has served as both a memorial honoring local veterans and one of Palmerton’s most important community spaces.

Today, Palmerton Memorial Park includes a swimming pool and wading pool, picnic pavilions, recreation areas, refreshment stand, and wooded trails across 18 acres of community space.

But many people don’t realize an important truth:

Memberships and admissions alone are not enough to sustain the park and pool.

Rising costs for staffing, maintenance, utilities, insurance, and repairs continue to grow each year. Community donations are essential to keeping the park safe, welcoming, affordable, and open for future generations.

Every gift to the Palmerton Memorial Park Association through NEPA Gives helps:

• Maintain the pool and park grounds
• Support lifeguards and seasonal staffing
• Fund repairs and facility upkeep
• Preserve a place that means so much to so many families

If the park has ever been part of your story, we hope you’ll help ensure it remains part of Palmerton’s story for generations to come.
