It continued to grow and expand from one unit to 120 units, and from 250 acres to almost 300,000 acres of land by 2015. A previous book entitled History of Pennsylvania’s State Parks was authored by William C. Forrey and covered the years 1893 to 1983. This book is a continuation of the Pennsylvania State Park history from 1984 to 2015. In the United States, all 50 states operate and maintain state park systems. Attendance continues to increase and opportunities for outdoor recreation are offered in more variety than ever. At the same time, more services are provided, such as cabin and campsite reservations, guided hikes and bicycle tours, water trails, long distance hiking trails and many environmental education programs. Friends groups have been established in many state parks and are providing outstanding assistance in helping to maintain and expand services to state park visitors.

    The Keystone State's Cial Boating Magazine

    The Keystone State's cial Boating Magazine • VIEWPOINT BOATING ACCESSES On June 20, 1986, the Fish Commission formally opened a new boat launching area at the site of the old Frankford Arsenal in Philadelphia. This opening was the culmination of years of effort to provide a place for residents of southeastern Pennsylvania to launch their boats onto the Delaware River. Declared surplus by the federal government in 1981, the Commission received title to approximately 19 acres of waterfront property. A design for an area that would eventually accommodate 350 car/trailers was developed. Construction was scheduled to be accomplished in phases, and the first two phases were completed this spring. The area currently has room for 190 car/trailers and has three two-lane launch ramps and courtesy boarding docks. Twenty-four-hour security has been provided on the site, although the area is currently closed from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Reports indicate that this much needed access is receiving the use that was expected and will in future years become a very important part of boating in Philadelphia. While this access and others under construction in Cowanshannock in Armstrong County and Chillisquaque in Northumberland County are meeting some local needs, a recently completed conference of state and federal agencies involved in the development of boat launches and marinas held in Detroit has concluded that good boating facilities are sorely needed in many areas. It is estimated that there are currently about 16,000 public launch sites nationwide. The phenomenal growth in boating recreation, however, will place demand on facilities to quadruple the number of sites currently available by the year 2000.

Allen Street State College, PA 16801 With assistance from: William Palmer - Pennsylvania Game Commission Jim Barr and Steve Volgstadt - Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Mark Banker - Ruffed Grouse Society Dave Putnam, Kelly Williams, Shawna Barry, Adam Smith – U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 2 Bald Eagle State Park Bald Eagle State Park lies in the Bald Eagle Valley in Centre County, Pennsylvania. The Park, as well as the valley, creek, and mountain in this area were named after Chief Bald Eagle (Chief Woapalanne in his native tongue), a well-known chief of the Lenni Lenape Nation. He and his tribe inhabited the areas near Milesburg during the mid 1700’s (Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources 2002). Bald Eagle State Park lies on 5,900 acres developed adjacent to the Foster Joseph Sayers Dam. On July 4, 1971, the Bureau of State Parks signed a forty-year lease with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (C.O.E) for the use of the 5,900 acres. Since 1971, the Bureau of State Parks has been solely responsible for the capital development of the land (Pennsylvania Game Commission 1998). Parts of the 5,900 acres, located on both the north and south sides of the lake, are leased to the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Bald Eagle State Park offers a wide selection of recreational opportunities such as picnicking, camping, hunting, fishing, swimming, boating, water skiing, ice fishing, ice skating, cross country skiing, sled riding, and tobogganing.
