History of Fair Oak Park
Fair Oak Park is approximately 14 acres, located along Fair Oak Road in Monroe Township. The land was donated to Monroe Township in June 1979 by the North Monroe Township Civic Association (NMTCA) for development as a neighborhood park. In the 1970’s, the NMTCA operated a shooting range at the property which area residents stated was used once a week on Sundays for about 8 to 10 years. This area may also have been used as an informal shooting range prior to the purchase of the property by the NMTCA in the late 1960’s. An aerial photo from 1985 indicates that the property was not developed into a neighborhood park until sometime after that time.
