The Shenango Recreation Area will be closed to the public beginning March 23. Extensive road work is planned to begin which includes milling and asphalt paving, and will prohibit vehicle and foot travel within the area. The closure will not extend beyond May 13 and the area will be reopened as soon as possible. The other boat launches, including the Mahaney and Clark launches, will still be open to the public. The campground is still scheduled to open May 14 as originally planned. Any impacts (if any) to Earth Day activities will be assessed closer to April 24. We apologize for the inconvenience but look forward to improving our facilities for the public. We realize this is a short notice, so please help us out by letting your friends, relatives, neighbors, or anyone else that uses the Shenango Rec Area know about this closure. Thank you
