GENERAL INFORMATION
The Ephrata Recreation Center was founded in 1951, as a not-for-profit
corporation to provide recreational services at a reasonable cost. For the
first 27 years the Center occupied an old Amory on Cloister Avenue, and in
1978 it moved to its present location. The funds to construct the Center
were provided through contributions from generous citizens, businesses, and
charitable foundations throughout the Ephrata area.
The 65,000 square foot Center is governed by a Board of Directors and
employs a professional staff that offers over 100 guaranteed programs, for
every conceivable age, gender, and interest group serving 11,000 plus
participants.
