About Millerstown Community Park ...
The park was established in 2003. Valera Long Cupp bequeathed $1,750,000 with the stipulation it was
used to build a much needed park for the community of Millerstown. The park is located about 1 mile east
of Millerstown, nestled along the banks of the beautiful Juniata River. Its 40 acres houses the Millerstown
Community Swimming Pool, the carnival grounds, 2 youth soccer fields, a playground, a youth baseball
and football field, numerous foot paths and a walking bridge across the creek.
Our park is pet friendly, so if you want to bring a four legged friend along for a nice stroll along the river,
please feel free to do so. We only ask that you clean up after your pet, and there are stations set up along
our foot paths for you to do so. Whether you enjoy stretching your legs on our footpaths, or you want to
take in the beautiful views of the river on our bridges, we invite you and your family to enjoy all of these
attractions at the park.
We are very proud of our new amphitheater. Since it was built, it has seen some of the best of local bands,
and has also served as a stage for our local community band, and our nations' Drum and Bugle Corp.
When we are not using it to entertain members of the community with music, it serves as a pretty good
stage for things such as local turkey calling contests.
