About Friends of PTARC
Got a Buck for the Recreation Center

Friends of PTARC FACE Gala - April 24, 2010

Friends of PTARC LogoAbout Friends of PTARC

Who Are We? Friends of Penn-Trafford Area Recreation Commission is a non-profit, tax-exempt Pennsylvania corporation created to provide funding for community organizations, including the Penn-Trafford Area Recreation Commission, to support community projects, recreational programs and activities, and community development projects.

What Do We Do? The Penn Trafford Area Recreation Commission acquired the former kindergarten/library building in Level Green and 22 acres of property adjacent to Sunrise Elementary School. Friends of PTARC has established its initial goal to raise funds to complete the rehabilitation of the Level Green building into the PTARC Shelley Proskin Recreation Center. The completion of this project will cost approximately $100,000.

How Can You Help? Friends of PTARC is asking community-minded organizations and individuals to donate funds, materials, labor, and/or their time to assist in the completion of these projects.

Why Should You Help? The PTARC/Shelley Proskin Recreation Center provides:

  • A place for families to hold birthday parties, bridal and baby showers, graduation parties, and anniversary celebrations.
  • A facility for parents and caregivers to take pre-school children for fun activities and early childhood education.
  • A place for after-school activities, homework supervision, club meetings, fitness, and fun activities for school-aged children.
  • A facility for life-long learning, fitness, and wellness activities for adults.

Who Should I Contact? If you are interested in helping or desire additional information, please contact Cheryl Kemerer, Executive Director at 724-744-2171 ext. 205.

Public Meetings: Regular meetings of Friends of PTARC are held the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. in the Penn-Trafford High School Warrior Center

Board of Directors: Linda Iams (chair), Eleanor Flannery (vice-chair), Celest Roof (secretary), Linda Iams (treasurer), Dr. Jason Cinti, Michele DeNillo, Jennifer Miele, Linda Novak
