ROY Revitalize Youngsville Pa

Have you checked out the Youngsville, PA Downtown Master Plan?
Prepared By Downtown Redevelopment Services in 2023

The Borough of Youngsville is located in Northwestern,
Pennsylvania, within the central part of Warren County.
The Borough is located along historic Route 6 and is
surrounded by the Allegheny National Forest within the
“Pennsylvania Wilds.”

Downtown Youngsville should be seen as a destination within
the Borough and the greater region. Proper design and
programming can make it a true borough core. This will require
investing in Downtown’s public infrastructure, promoting
redevelopment, and leveraging its assets and location. The result
will be a vibrant place with character and attractive
opportunities to invest and grow.

🌟Exciting news for our community🌟
We are thrilled to share that we’ve been awarded a $100,000 grant to help bring our vision of a welcoming beautiful shared space in our town center to life. This will be a place for everyone to gather, relax, and enjoy our community together. Maybe have a nice cup of coffee from the Bean Bank or a delicious slice of pizza from the Galley. Stay Tuned!

NEW: We're investing nearly $82 million to support over 295 projects to expand trails, improve parks, and protect public lands in nearly every county in Pennsylvania.

Every Pennsylvanian should be able to enjoy the beautiful outdoor spaces our Commonwealth has to offer — no matter where you live.

Revitalization of Youngsville (ROY) is a volunteer-based nonprofit organization established to enhance the quality of life and support a healthy local economy in the Youngsville area. Under the leadership of President John Papalia, ROY has been reinvigorated in recent years and continues to operate with a clear focus on community improvement.

At its October 22 meeting, the ROY Members agreed to support a letter encouraging consideration of the Youngsville High School building for potential economic reuse. This position aligns with ROY’s mission to strengthen Youngsville’s economy and maintain community vitality.

During a recent School Board meeting, a comment was made that did not accurately reflect ROY’s position. The individual who spoke, Ellie Dunn, is a long-time volunteer and dedicated supporter of the Youngsville community. Ellie was not representing ROY in any official capacity at that meeting and has since shared that she misspoke and deeply regrets the misunderstanding that followed.

Unfortunately, recent discussions and events have led to personal attacks and emotional distress for some of our volunteers. These individuals, including long-time community supporters such as Ellie Dunn and John Papalia, deserve appreciation—not criticism—for their countless hours of service to Youngsville.

ROY remains committed to constructive dialogue and collaboration with all who share a vision for the community’s future. We ask our neighbors to join us in showing respect, kindness, and gratitude to those who dedicate themselves to making Youngsville a better place to live.

And it begins!

"Progress is often uncomfortable. It demands that we stretch, adapt, and sometimes even abandon what's familiar to move forward."

It's a GREAT day in Youngsville!!!
