The Rotary Club of Moon Township built this shelter and donated it to Moon Parks and Recreation: The Rotary Club recognized a need for a community gathering place in the park for families and friends to meet and celebrate. Funds were raised and the original shelter was built in the summer of 1965. It was dedicated in 1967. Then, in 1994, the Rotary Club of Moon Township doubled the size of the original shelter for a bigger meeting place for the community.
