The Oak Leaf<br />

A Sticky Situation<br />

One only has to look outside <strong>of</strong> <strong>Olivedale</strong>’s<br />

Charming facility to see yet another picturesque<br />

site; <strong>Olivedale</strong> Park. <strong>Olivedale</strong> <strong>Senior</strong> <strong>Center</strong> sits<br />

on a Lancaster Park location. The entryway into<br />

the building has many areas with plants and<br />

mulch. These areas are not for discarding gum or<br />

cigarette butts. Chewing gum is the second most<br />

common form <strong>of</strong> litter after cigarette butts.<br />

Neither are biodegradable and can leave lasting<br />

negative affects on the environment. Littered<br />

COMMUNICATION CORNER<br />

Page 3<br />

gum can make it’s way into the food chain. When<br />

ready to discard your gum, consider aiming for a<br />

trash can instead <strong>of</strong> the flower beds. <strong>Olivedale</strong><br />

has a designated smoking area in the center<br />

island that meets the law requirement <strong>of</strong> being 20’<br />

from any entrance. There is a butt can receptacle<br />

in the island so that we can keep our park clean.<br />

Earth Day is April 22nd, so please remember to<br />

save our planet and keep our Lancaster Parks<br />

clean. Thank you, Park Management.<br />

Ballroom Dance ~ Mambo<br />

The Mambo dance originated in Cuba where<br />

there were substantial settlements <strong>of</strong> Haitians.<br />

It first appeared in the United States in New<br />

York's Park Plaza Ballroom. A modified version<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Mambo" was presented to the public at<br />

dance studios, resort hotels, and at night-clubs<br />

in New York and Miami. Success was on the<br />

agenda. Mambo happy dancers soon became<br />

known affectionately as "Mambonicks". Can<br />

Mambo recapture the glory <strong>of</strong> its golden days?<br />

ending their partnership in<br />

vision <strong>of</strong> then director,<br />

Peg Clifford, with input from<br />

then CEO Creighton Likes,<br />

heralded a unique approach to<br />

wellness in the community. We<br />

have come a long way since that<br />

very first day. I shall miss each<br />

and everyone <strong>of</strong> you, and those<br />

who passed through these halls<br />

before you. You have enriched<br />

my life immeasurably, and I<br />

thank you with all my heart.<br />

All the best,<br />

Stacey<br />

Thank you Stacey<br />

for your years <strong>of</strong><br />

service and<br />
