AVONIA BEACH PARK is 3.6 acres located on the shores of beautiful Lake Erie (Steelhead capital of PA) at the place where Trout Run, a high-quality trout stream, empties into the lake. The beach attracts many fishermen and is a popular destination for viewing steelhead trout or some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world.

The property, located on the east side of Avonia Road, was purchased by the Township in 2006 with assisted funding from DCNR, PA Fish & Boat Commission, Coastal Zone Management, Lake Erie Region Conservancy and Sons of Lake Erie. The property was acquired to provide public access to the lake and stream for fishing. Master Site Plans have been developed to provide more parking, creating new site access, installing a wonderful viewing platform over Trout Run, handicapped-accessible fishing platform and walkway to the beach. The residence on the property is used for educational purposes with updates planned in the future to better accommodate more events.

Sunsets, fishing, strolling along the beachfront, watching steelhead trout running upstream, environmental and natural habitat experience - Avonia Beach Park offers it all for year-round enjoyment – The Gem on Lake Erie.

BUSECK MEMORIAL PARK is a small park, consisting of only two benches, located on the corner of Avonia Road (Route 98) and Chestnut Street and is used for rest and relaxation as well as a green environmental area.

FAIRVIEW CENTRAL PARK
is new to the center of Fairview Township at the intersection of Routes 98 & 20. It serves as a welcome to residents and visitors, providing an area for relaxation with a sitting area with benches, pergola, sidewalks, flowers & plantings, and a school bell that once opened each school day at an early Fairview school.

The Fairview Garden Club and Girl Scout troops have generously donated time for plantings and the care of the flowers over the summer months.
