Pocket Park Dedicated To Homans

SWEDESBORO — A small pocket park that was created near the bottom of Park Avenue in Swedesboro that once was the location of a Swedesboro pump station house. The building was torn down and the area, paved in the design of a tree, was dedicated to Maryann and Mike Homan for all the years of serves to Swedesboro on the Shade Tree Commission. Troop 13 Eagle Scout Joshua Gross took on the project of creating the park under the direction of Councilwoman JoAnna Gahrs and Councilman Dave Flaherty. The project will be completed in the early spring or 2018. Pictured here are (back row left to right) J.
