The pool typically opens on the Saturday before Memorial Day through Labor day and is open 7 days a week. For questions on opening/closing due to inclement weather, contact the pool office at 717-484-2175 (this number is only in service during the pool season).  For information on pool pavilion rentals or swim lessons, please contact the pool manager at atownpoolmanager@gmail.com.  For pool membership questions, please contact the borough office at 717-484-2280.  

Community Park

The park or "grove" is at the west end of town, between the swimming pool and elementary school. This is a public park open to all. There is a kitchen, pavilion and restrooms, all handicap accessible, that are available to rent for reunions or picnics for a non-refundable fee of $100. Payment is due at the time of the reservation. Please contact the Borough office for available dates. 

Memorial Park

This park is located at the intersection of Adamstown road and West Main Street, below the elementary school and is owned by the Borough, but has been developed into a memorial park by the Adamstown Lions Club. The club maintains the park for the enjoyment of area residents.

Tennis Courts

The Borough has two tennis courts, west of the swimming pool facility. You can access the courts through the pool parking area. The courts are open to the public and used on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Community Trail 

The Borough maintains a walking trail that runs from Stoudtburg Road to the grove.  This trail has undergone numerous improvements in the past couple years, including much of the trail being overlaid with millings, directional trail signs installed at both ends and informational signs installed along the trail.  Additional improvements are planned for the Community Trail in the future.
