Red Land Senior Center opens doors to new home

LEWISBERRY, Pa. (WHTM) — After months of planning, the Red Land Senior Center has officially begun operations at its new headquarters.

The renovated building, housed in the former Lewisberry Borough Community Building at 501 Market Street in Lewisberry, is now officially open to the public. The center had been running out of a temporary setup at the Valley Grange #1360 fraternal building on Rosstown Road while work was being completed.
