Wagenseller Park
Wallace Township has five active public parks:
- Wagenseller Park, located at 140 Park Lane, off of Creek Road
- Burgess Park, located at 1771 Creek Road
- Margaret Howson Memorial Park, located at 2161 Creek Road
- Wallace Township Community Park, located at 1250 Creek Road
- Ray Park, located on Highspire Road
The township maintains one baseball field, one basketball court, two tennis courts, and a playground. The pavilion at Wagenseller Park may be reserved for family reunions and other group functions. Burgess Park and the Margaret Howson Memorial Park preserve and protect their attractive natural settings along the Brandywine Creek. In 1998, the Supervisors acquired sixty acres of land for a new Wallace Community Park. The acquisition was made possible by grant funding through the Chester County Heritage Park and Open Space Program and the state Keystone Program. The property borders the west bank of Brandywine Creek and is close to the County’s 300 acres Springton Manor Farm and the 700 acres Marsh Creek State Park.
Recreation programs offered by the Township include an Easter Egg Hunt, Halloween Party, Tree Lighting Ceremony, and various special events such as Movie Night and Community Day.
