Hempfield Park

🧭🧭 220 Forbes Trail Rd, Greensburg, PA 15601

🗺🗺 93 Acre

Ԍ Split by Tributary

Hempfield Park is a 93.41 acre single parcel, entered by Hempfield Township into the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) program. This means the land must be maintained as parkland in perpetuity, and is eligible to receive federal funding.

In 2017 and 2019, the park received LWCF funds for projects as a part of Rehabilitation. The park is divided in two by a stream, a tributary that feeds Brush Creek to the west. Each side of the park has a distinct character, and is referred to by staff as either the “HTAC Side” or “Park Side.” Each side, although in close proximity to one another, has its own main entrance and parking lot.

Phase 01

$738,000.00

This project received a Community Conservation Partnership Program grant from the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources in 2022. It includes replacing the asphalt path with ADA-compliant concrete walkways, adding a dance floor and seating area at the amphitheater, and improving restroom access with a Comfort Station near the playground. To address community feedback, the plan recommends adding shade trees at the amphitheater and shade structures at the playground. Drainage improvements behind Pavilion D are also proposed to prevent ponding, protect pavement, and enhance kitchen usability.

ȫ Comfort Station and Concession Building serving the Amphitheater and Playground

Phase 02

$2,630,000.00

ȫ Concrete Dance Floor providing an accessible route from Pavilion D to the Playground ȫ Restore the Amphitheater Lawn

Pickleball was the second-most-requested facility in Hempfield Park, especially popular with seniors. The proposed complex will include dedicated pickleball courts and tennis courts with pickleball overlays for flexibility. The tennis courts will be relocated, and a comfort station and shelter will be added. New utilities will be needed due to the site’s lack of services and distance from restrooms. The courts are placed near undeveloped woodland to minimize noise near Park Side.

ȫ Eight fenced, color coated pickleball courts with waiting area ȫ New utility services and stormwater infrastructure ȫ Two fenced, color coated tennis courts overlaid with pickleball lines

Phase 03

$1,052,000.00 ȫ Pavilion with storage for nature programming supplies Page 6

ȫ Playground Shade Structure and Shade Trees ȫ Repair stormwater drainage behind Pavilion D Concessions

ȫ Comfort Station and Shelter building ȫ Parking with ADA spaces and walkways, +/- 55 stalls, and shade trees

Park Side offers a peaceful, wooded space for all ages to enjoy nature. Following the 2023 Westmoreland County Conservation District stream restoration, it adds outdoor learning areas, including a classroom and pavilion with storage.

A native garden across the creek will support plant programs and feature play areas like willow huts. A hillside trail, requested by the public, will connect to a meadow and highlight native trees. Wildlife habitat features, such as bat houses, will be installed with opportunities for community involvement. ȫ Outdoor classroom for nature education programs

Athletic Complex 🧭🧭 Located at

Hempfield Park

Ľ 1/10th-Mile Indoor Walking Track

The Hempfield Township Athletic Complex (HTAC) is a valuable asset for Hempfield Township residents, and a type of facility that is not commonly available as a public facility (but is often desired) in municipalities in the Pittsburgh metro area. The value of indoor recreation cannot be overstated, as it makes activities available to populations that may be sensitive to outdoor conditions and extends the season for athletics.

The HTAC provides three multipurpose courts serving basketball, soccer, pickleball, badminton, and volleyball.

A 1/10 mile indoor walking track and rental opportunities ensure the facility is fully utilized. Restrooms, concessions, and offices are provided in the lobby area.

🏀🏀 Three Multipurpose Courts

Hempfield Township Athletic Complex Expansion And Entrance − Architectural addition with indoor recreation space − Traffic calming and pedestrian safety improvements to parking lot − Rain garden and stormwater improvements to parking lot − ADA bleachers, paths, and building entrance − Shade Trees

In 2024, the Hempfield Township Supervisors invested in renovating and upgrading the Hempfield Township Athletic Complex to meet the community’s ever-demanding needs. The upgrades included installing HVAC and LED lighting and evolving the concession stand to meet a more vibrant community.
