Exciting things happened at Stoneridge Park over the summer . Thanks to the generous donation from an anonymous resident , the Township was able to remove the existing playground and add in a new inclusive playground . This playground features slides , climbing equipment , and more plus a ramp providing access to all . The goal of this playground is to promote play among children of different abilities and ages in the Burchfield neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods . Something else that is new at Stoneridge Park is a Marbles Court ! Did you know that many of the national marbles champions have come from Shaler Township ? Now they have a place to practice in Shaler . Thank you to the Public Works Department for doing the work in-house to make this happen .
