Charles E. Brown Park History


This park is named after Charles E. "Professor" Brown, a Lackey resident and former York County schoolteacher, who had a keen interest in helping young people.  Brown, who died in 1975, was also a former president of the State chapter of the NAACP. 

Charles E. Brown Park, located on Route 238 in Lackey, was the County's first park and is the only park land purchased by the County.  Construction of this 10-acre facility was completed in 1978.
