begin construction of pic
nicking and hiking facilities
as early as 1982.
Original plans for the Park
included construction of a
dam and creation of a water
supply and recreational lake
on Swatara Creek. In ad
dition to picnicking and
hiking, the plan called for
development of swimming,
hunting, fishing, canoeing,
boating and camping
facilities.
At current price levels,
DER projects that major
development, including dam
construction, road
relocation, and building of
recreation facilities, should
cost in the area of $lB
million.
Manbeck said that when
completed, the Park will
provide an easily accessible
recreation facility for
Dauphin, Lebanon, and
Schuylkill County residents,
and a first rate tourist at
traction for visitors from all
areas of the Commonwealth.
In addition to the benefits
of the recreational facilities,
Manbeck also noted that the
Swatara Lake project is
vitally necessary as a water
supply source for the area.
“If Central Pennsylvania is
to continue to grow,”
Manbeck said, “we will need
to be able to increase our
water supply. The Swatara
Lake Park project is
designed to help us do this.”
