History

No one knows how the area became known as Sand Bridge.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania purchased the land in 1905 and it became a part of White Deer State Forest District. In the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps built the pavilions and restrooms. In 1978, the Pennsylvania Bureau of State Parks took over administration of Sand Bridge State Park.
