There are 18 rustic campsites, with water fountains/spigots, non-flush toilets, picnic tables, and grills available for campers and day use visitors. There are garbage cans available, but it is advised that you pack out your trash if possible. The roads leading into and out of the park are unpaved and are not plowed in the winter. Four wheel drive is not necessary to get there, but if you drive a car that is low to the ground be aware that the trip up will not be the smoothest. We spent a long weekend here in mid October, and while there were a few other couples and families camping on Fri/Sat night, on Sunday we were completely alone. It was isolated and a little creepy, but ultimately it was really nice to be away from civilization! Rangers drive through a couple times of day. There are some nice trails, lots of wildlife (keep your food in your car, if you don't want to be visited by foxes and coyotes in the middle of the night) streams, and a pond that is stocked for fishing. It is a nice, quiet place to kick back & enjoy the outdoors. I am really looking forward to visiting again!

On the one hand, the park isn't what it used to be. On the other, it still provides valuable…read moreservices to the community. Plus, there are a lot of ducks and geese living there. The park lies along Kishacoquillas Creek and features a one-mile walking/running trail around the perimeter. A large portion of this trail fronts the creek, and it is a beautiful site for a stroll, or to sit on a bench and read. Another main feature are the picnic pavilions. Family reunions, scout groups, church groups, youth sports teams, and many others utilize the pavilions for events. They are simple but serviceable, with grills, water, and picnic tables. The park also houses the Stone Arch Players, a local theater troupe. I can't vouch, but they've been going strong for about twenty years, and people seem to like it. At least they're making an effort to bring some culture, no matter how amateur, to the area. Mini-golf: For $2.25, you can play a round on the boringly simple but surprisingly well maintained 18-hole course. This course was $1 when I was a kid, and aside from paint touchups and new carpets, only three holes have changed since then. Par on the back nine seems high (I shot -5 on the way in this afternoon) but whether you keep score or not, it's always fun. Plus, how can you beat $2.25?! Hundreds of ducks and geese call the park home. I always enjoy watching these birds for some reason. Hey, everybody likes ducks, right?

There are spots with baggies for any of the little doggy messes your best friend may make. There are also public restrooms. My favorite feature of the park is the remains of what use to be a theme park. Here you will find the remains of an old bumper car house, an old stage, and some other remnants of the old Kish park. Growing up in the area, I have many fond summer memories at Kish park. From baseball and reunions to fishing and family walks. In the Christmas season, a local group decorates the park with lights. It makes for a fun walk in the brisk winter air. There are some things that are to be desired in the park. It would be nice to see a revitalized park with rides for the kids. This would be a great place to put one of those community classic style carousels. The park could use a little bit of a facelift as long as they preserve the historical aspect of the old rides. Maybe the mini golf could use an update. Also, maybe it is time to get the old closed up pool ripped out or turn it into a place for local skateboarders to play. All that said, it is a solid place to take the kids on a weekend or to just go and sit down to eat a pizza or subs with the family. I live fairly close to the park and probably don't spend enough time there.

If you're looking for the newest gym at Penn State, then you're probably going to end up at Rec…read moreHall. On campus, there are numerous locations to workout, but none actually have windows that you can actually see outside. Here at Rec Hall, there are huge windows that let you see North Atherton, although there isn't much to see, at least you can see sunlight. Now with all gyms at PSU, there is a ridiculous crowd. You're most likely going to be waiting for machines, and squeezing by a bunch of people just to get from one spot to the next. Sure, I've looked outside of campus to see if I should be joining somewhere else with less of a crowd. After checking out all the gyms in town, it's still better to go with the gyms on campus. The equipment is newer, and is actually maintained. At places like North Club, sure there isn't much of a crowd, but the equipment is pretty old too. Although the equipment is nicer, my gym experience isn't any better. Because there are so many people here at most times, this places get so stuffy and smelly. At a normal gym, I can run a mile and maybe break a light sweat. Here, after a mile, I look like I've been running a 5k because I am drenched in sweat. More or less, I am working out in a sauna. Rec Hall is the nicest gym on campus to get a workout. There are huge windows and new equipment. Sure, the other ones are larger, but they are also a little older. Plus, you're basically working out in a basement. On the downside, the ventilation at Rec Hall is pretty bad, and the gym starts getting humid and sweaty. If only they could actually turn up the A/C or at least open up a window or two. Want to avoid the crowds? Then don't come here between 5pm-10pm. Go when everyone else is in class so that you can actually get a peaceful workout in.

A real student organization to set up activities would lead to more lively program in this space. Not using students to lead and program in this area is sad, and helps lead students to off-campus activities (e.g., drinking), because they are not offered leadership opportunities on campus. This is also leads to the HUB being not a leader in the ACUI.org You will not see a list of events. you will not see a lecture series (at least on the web site), you will not see a movie series. You will no longer see Late Night at Penn State (events on the weekends at night). You will not see student-led program initiatives. oh, and yeah, I'm glad the bookstore is there, but it sucks. it does not do its basic job very well, which is providing textbooks. But, you cannot complain to the university because they outsourced it. If you are in the HUB management, please do correct the web site and include more students in the leadership roles. They are messy and wrong, but they do turn into leaders and learn from it. That is really part of your job, if my dad taught me correctly. but, a great space, well used, and fulfills half of what a student union can do.
