Turkey Swamp Park
Turkey Swamp Park is a 1,180-acre (4.78 km²) park located in Freehold Township, New Jersey on the northern fringe of the Pine Barrens. The Turkey Swamp area includes the headwaters of the extensive Manasquan, Metedeconk, and Toms River systems.〔(Freehold Township Master Plan (2010), p.7-1 )〕〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map )〕 The chief recreational attraction of this park is the lake suitable for bass, bluegill and catfish fishing, as well as canoeing and paddle boating.
The core of the park was purchased in 1963. Additional land was purchased in the 1970s and more recently to bring the park to its current configuration.
==Nomenclature==
The title of the park may be considered a bit of a misnomer considering the park does not bear a swamp, nor does it act as a habitat for turkeys. Although considering that the soil is rather sandy and the water table lies slightly beneath the surface, this thus gives rise to swampy conditions at times when the surface topography dips to the water line; hence the 'swamp' title. The 'turkey' prefix, however, was adapted from the town's previous name, Turkey. The town once known as Turkey is now known as the unincorporated area of Adelphia.〔(Turkey Swamp hiking information ), accessed 3 October 2006〕
