Progress swift on Sheppton Miners Park

SHEPPTON – Work on the new Sheppton Miners Memorial Park here is progressing quickly.

Paths, a gazebo, and foliage are already in place.

The park is being built by Mericle Commercial Real Estate Services at Pine and Center Streets in the village.

It will memorialize the Sheppton Mine Disaster of 1963 and was approved by the township in April.
