After living the last forty-five years of her life at Robin Hill with her husband, Francis Bailey Nimick, and their six children, and aware of increasing population growth in the area in 1970, Mary Nimick bequested the family's 53-acre property through her will to Moon Township on the condition that it be for perpetual use as a park or wildlife refuge and for the enjoyment of township residents and their friends, to be known thereafter as Robin Hill Park or Robin Hill Wildlife Refuge. Moon Township accepted the bequest in 1971 and, together with the Robin Hill Associates, worked to add acreage to the park and create a popular community center.
