October 21, 2025

 Perkasie, PA – Perkasie Borough is proud to recognize and thank the Perkasie Industrial Development Authority (PIDA) for their generous $10,000 donation in support of upgrades to the Borough’s community amphitheater, located in Lenape Park.

 A significant portion of the donation—$6,750—was used to install new safety and performance lighting. The upgrades include indirect ceiling lighting for improved visibility during evening events, a dedicated security light with its own timer, and a manual control system for event lighting. Additional outlets and protected wiring were also installed to support future expansion and performance needs. These enhancements increase both the functionality and safety of the space, while maintaining a welcoming and secure environment.

 PIDA serves as a conduit for private financing of economic development projects in Bucks County. Members are appointed to five-year terms and meet only when an application is received. In addition to supporting business development, PIDA continues to contribute to public projects that enhance quality of life for Perkasie residents.

 “We’re incredibly thankful to the Perkasie Industrial Development Authority for this generous donation,” said David Worthington, Perkasie Borough Councilman, and Chair of the Borough’s Parks & Recreation Committee. “Their support helps us create safer, more versatile space that can serve our community year-round.”

 Remaining funds from the donation will be used for additional amphitheater improvements.
