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 />

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 />

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

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

After nearly twenty years,<br />
Fairfield Medical <strong>Center</strong> and<br />

ending their partnership in<br />
<strong>Olivedale</strong>’s Wellness <strong>Center</strong>. It<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 />
