Cranberry Summer Nights continues to grow as a signature community tradition, and this year, we're introducing a new way to support it.

The Terrace at Summer Nights is a limited-ticket offering designed with dual purposes: to enhance the guest experience and directly support the community.

Every Terrace ticket purchased benefits the Cranberry Foundation Project of the Year, with proceeds helping to fund parks, public spaces, recreational amenities, and community programs that residents of all ages use and enjoy throughout the year.

Guests who choose The Terrace will enjoy a relaxed viewing area, added comfort, and a social setting designed for a memorable night out - but most importantly, they'll be contributing to meaningful, long-term community investment.

This is more than an event enhancement. It's a fundraiser that helps shape the spaces and experiences that define Cranberry Township.

We look forward to seeing the impact this new experience creates - on and off the stage!

Growing a Greener Future 🌱

Community leaders recently gathered at Powell Farm for the Cranberry Conservancy's Visioning Forum, focused on the future of conservation, agriculture, and community connection in Cranberry Township.

Representatives from the Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania Board of Supervisors, Seneca Valley School District, Butler County Commissioners, Senator Elder Vogel, and a representative from U.S. Senator Dace McCormick's office joined Cranberry Foundation leaders to hear the Conservancy's long-term vision for Powell Farm and the Cranberry Greenway Plan - initiatives designed to preserve green spaces, strengthen sustainability efforts, and create lasting opportunities for future generations.

To mark the occasion, guests planted apple trees - a symbol of investment in the future of the community.

Through partnerships, collaboration, fundraising, and grant support, the Conservancy continues its mission to protect and enhance Cranberry Township's natural and agricultural resources for years to come.

For decades, Dick Hadley helped shape Cranberry Township through his leadership, dedication, and unwavering belief in community.

This week, the Cranberry Foundation honored that lasting legacy with the unveiling of a commemorative bench near the fishing pond along the walking trail at UPMC Passavant Sportsplex at Graham Park - a place where residents and visitors alike can pause, reflect, and enjoy the community he helped build.

The ceremony was attended by Mary Jane Hadley, members of the Hadley family, the Township Board of Supervisors, and the Cranberry Foundation Board of Directors, as the Dick and Mary Jane Hadley Heritage Endowment was recognized for its lasting impact on generations.

Through the Heritage Endowment, the Hadley family's commitment to Cranberry will continue far into the future, supporting the community they cared so deeply about.

Investing in community wellness continues!

This week, we joined Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania leaders and community partners to celebrate the groundbreaking of the future National Fitness Campaign Fitness Court Studio at the UPMC Passavant Sportsplex at Graham Park.

As our 2025 Project of the Year, this unique, double-sided court will feature a dynamic Fitness Court for self-guided workouts and an open studio space for instructor-led classes, youth programs, and wellness events. It's the only dual court in Western Pennsylvania and will allow the Cranberry Township Parks and Recreation Department to expand programming.

We are proud to support projects that create lasting impact in our community and look forward to seeing the Fitness Court Studio become a space where residents can gather, move, and thrive! Thank you to our donors who also helped bring this project to life.
