Abington Township recently announced that the Ardsley Community Center Parks and Recreation Office will be moving to the Alverthorpe Manor Office, 515 Meetinghouse Road, Jenkintown.

The Township cited school shootings and supply chain issues as the reasons for the relocation.

From the Township’s announcement:

Given recent national school shooting events and supply chain challenges, the Township is taking immediate Parks operational measures to make the daycare facility within the Ardsley Community Center more secure. The health and safety of the children is of the upmost priority and the Township is taking every precaution necessary. As such, the Ardsley Community Center Parks and Recreation Office will be moving its operations to the Alverthorpe Manor Office. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding. We will post regular updates on the status of the reopening of the Ardsley office on our website at www.abingtonpa.gov/PR. 

In the interim, all Parks and Recreation services will be offered at Alverthorpe Manor located at 515 Meetinghouse Road, Jenkintown, PA 19046, 2nd Floor. Alverthorpe Manor is open Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4:30 PM.
