Cranberry Sets Opening Date For Armstrong Great Lawn

CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, PA — The township will officially debut the long-awaited opening of the Armstrong Great Lawn with an event on May 16. Celebrate Cranberry will occur from 4 p.m.-7 p.m. that day at the municipal center.

“The area surrounding the municipal center has grown so much in the last four years,” said Bruce Mazzoni, a township supervisor and president of the Cranberry Township Community Chest. “We see this project as an opportunity to further connect our community through a beautiful, functional gathering space.”

Celebrate Cranberry offers the community a chance to experience the Armstrong Great Lawn. The event includes a Touch-A-Truck area with a sensory hour, Cranberry Local Government Day with township representatives available to meet with residents, a photo booth, live music, food trucks and more.

The celebration starts at 3:30 p.m. as the Cranberry Township Community Chest unveils the Armstrong Great Lawn Donor Wall. As the Cranberry Township Community Chest 2024 project of the year, the Armstrong Great Lawn project ties the municipal center to the rest of the community through a pedestrian-friendly shared space. The project coincides with the municipal center modernization project, which expanded and improved space within the building.
