OUR MISSION

Back Mountain Recreation, Inc. (BMR) is a charitable, non-profit corporation dedicated to the conservation of open space and the development of recreational facilities in the Back Mountain region of Northeastern Pennsylvania.   

Working together with state, county and local governments; non-profits; youth sports organizations; civic groups; area businesses; foundations; school districts and area residents; we aim to improve the quality of life enjoyed by all Back Mountain residents and meet a wide range of community needs with a special emphasis on serving our youth and seniors.

BMR strives to promote participation in healthy activities and environmental stewardship, provide educational opportunities to the public, and demonstrate sound land use planning in a quickly developing region.

THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE

Our efforts are focused in the "Back Mountain" region of Luzerne and Wyoming Counties.  This area is commonly defined as the communities served by the Dallas and Lake-Lehman Area School Districts and includes the Boroughs of Dallas and Harveys Lake; the entirety of the Townships of Dallas, Franklin, Jackson, Kingston, Lake, Lehman, Noxen, and Ross; and portions of the Townships of Hunlock, Fairmont, Monroe and Northmoreland.
