The Slovene National Benefit Society applied to have their 500-acre (200 ha) recreation center in North Beaver Township designated as a separate municipality in 1977. The S.N.P.J. borough was created so that the society could, among other things, get their own liquor license,[7] for North Beaver Township restricts the sale of alcohol.
