Sandy Hook Organization for Prosperity seeks to promote the Village as a family-friendly, pedestrian-oriented community that celebrates Sandy Hook’s unique historic heritage and beautiful natural setting.
Sandy Hook was the first settlement beyond the village of Newtown, The quaint little settlement that we know now started to form shortly after the first Gristmill was built on the Pootatuck River to utilize the water power of the substantial river. The village center businesses opened to serve the workers located here to run the many industrial endeavors that followed.
In a statement from Michael Burton, S.H.O.P. President “The Heritage Park project has been over 6 years in the making. It is a partnership between the Town, S.H.O.P., and many generous donors. Collectively, we are transforming a blight into a beautiful asset to the community. It will increase everyone’s property value and give the business community the ability to increase their volumes as a result of increased parking and recreational space.”
HISTORY & PURPOSE
The Heritage Park & Trail in Sandy Hook. is a community space on a piece of town-owned property that we lease for $1/year. The park will include a pavilion, 30 public parking places, and a green space that extends down to the river. S.H.O.P. continues fundraising for Phase Two of the project The Heritage Trail.
S.H.O.P. Board members will be on hand to showcase our initiatives for Heritage Park, and concert-goers will have an opportunity to make donations to support the project.
