We are going to create a Memory Wall at the Willows Mansion!

Share your memories and photos of The Willows Mansion and Park! They will be on display at the Mansion during our 50th Anniversary celebration.

Dust off those old pictures and send them to us so we can create a memory wall. Even if you don't have pictures, email us some written memories of times spent at the park or in the Mansion. As we work to bring life back to the Willows Mansion, it is important to capture and remember the history of this local treasure.

Pictures and memories can be emailed to Executive Director Will Nord at: willnord@willowsparkpreserve.org

An effort has been underway on behalf of the Parks & Recreation Department and the Parks & Recreation Board in the last year to make improvements to various features at the park along with creating an updated master site plan that will guide implementation.

Please note that dogs are not permitted at the Willows Park except in the main parking lot near the Skunk Hollow Trail access.

The following are reminders so that can work together to keep our parks and trails as places that everyone (both 2- and 4- legged!) can enjoy year round!

1.) While dogs are not required by Township code to be on a leash in our parks, they are required to be under control and close to his/her owner at all times. Please be courteous of others who share the parks and trails with your pet.

2.) Leaving waste on the ground is a health hazard! Look for receptacles located throughout our parks for bags and garbage bins that you can use to quickly clean up after your pet. Receptacles/Bag Stations are not located everywhere, so we strongly suggest bringing your own bags with you and taking your trash with you when you leave the park. Please do not deposit waste bags in our parks or on our trails! 

Please report emergency issues by dialing 9-1-1!

Users of North Wayne Park: Please enter off of the Beechtree Lane Merryvale Walkway Entrance.

After a recent engineering assessment of the Ithan Valley Bridge structures, it has been determined that the downstream/southernmost of the two bridges into the park is undermined and must be closed until further notice so that vehicles cannot access the bride in either direction. The upstream bridge can remain open and will temporarily serve as both the entrance and exit for vehicular traffic  at the park. Please use caution in the area.

Located at 248 Highland Ave in Wayne

The RTCA has a main hall with a seating capacity of approximately 150 people.
