Olivedale Senior Center

Pioneering the development of Lancaster City Parks was the donation of 73 acres of land by Philip Rising in 1908  Dedicated in 1909..  Many others have followed in this tradition. These gifts have been a continuance of Philip Rising's intent to create space for people to find rest from their daily cares. Those original acres that we call Rising Park, have grown through the years by other gifts to over 700 acres making the park system what it is today. These parks are all nestled throughout the city enhancing many neighborhoods
