  • 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.

  • DCNR Moves to Open State Park Swimming Beaches, Pools
    DCNR Moves to Open State Park Swimming Beaches, Pools Harrisburg, PA – Today, Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn announced a phased opening of all state park swimming beaches and some pools in keeping with Governor Wolf’s direction to ensure Pennsylvanians have opportunities to safely enjoy outdoor recreation and help maintain positive physical and mental health. Effective June 6, all 58 state park beaches will be open to swimming. State park pools will remain closed through at least June 12, with most in designated yellow and green counties reopening June 13. “Water-based activity is an integral part of the state park experience in Pennsylvania and, with appropriate protocols in place to ensure safety and as staffing permits, this department continues to reopen its state parks and forests so that Pennsylvanians can realize all the benefits of being outdoors,” Dunn said. Capacity at beaches and pools will be limited to 50 percent of the normal facility capacity, the secretary noted. Mitigation measures will be in place, including restricting visitor parking, controlling facility access, social distancing and the wearing of face masks when not in the water. All CDC guidance remains in effect. Dunn reminded visitors lifeguards are on duty at beaches at two state parks: Fuller Lake, at Pine Grove Furnace State Park, Cumberland County, and Presque Isle State Park, Erie County. Because of necessary maintenance work, swimming pools at Ryerson Station State Park, Greene County, and Codorus State Park, York County will not be opening for the 2020 season. Meanwhile, in a related development as the latest counties were announced as yellow, Dunn said facilities would be reopening at 18 state parks in eight counties.
