Walker Township in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, is the owner and caretaker of Woodcock Valley Park, which serves the community of McConnellstown and surrounding residents as an outdoor recreation space. The township supervisors and Park Committee would like to see changes to the park that implement easier maintenance and more utility for local residents. The township would like to see the park used more frequently by its residents, allow for parents with children at sports practice to enjoy the park, possibly accommodate community events at the park, etc. Student work include ideation and research of applications on comparable sites, planting selections and maintenance, and suggestions for educational outreach.
