Cayden's Corner @ Pine Creek Park
On December 16, 2023, the township opened a sand play area at Pine Creek Park in memory of Cayden Leithead, son of township residents Ryan and Denise Leithead. Cayden passed away a week after he was born in December 2022.
Pictured are Denise and Ryan Leithead and Cayden's big brother, Declan. The West Pikeland Township Board of Supervisors thanks the Leithead family for spearheading this project and encourages residents to enjoy the sand play area in Cayden's memory. The township is honored to be a part of this memorial.
