Groundbreaking Ceremony - March 8, 2023!

Located behind the existing Olean YMCA facility and open to the community!

FOR ALL SEASONS. FOR ALL AGES.

Building tomorrow together and connecting community.

CUTCO SPLASH PARK
The Cutco Splash Park will be a center of attraction in the summer equipped with multiple spray features.

WINTER PLAY PARK

During the winter families can enjoy ice skating, curling and other outdoor activities as the area transforms into a Winter Play Park.

AIRNASIUM
Multi-function space for youth and adult programs year round. Can be used for sports, games, group exercise, outdoor theater production, birthday parties and so much more.

WELCOME CENTER & BATH HOUSE
Secured by a surrounding fence, the welcome center is a single point of entry in the park. This will ensure a secure, safe place, provide a changing room and restrooms, and house mechanical equipment.

FIRE PIT
The fire pit gathering area will be the center point of the park. This will be a place to socialize around a warm fire in all seasons.

PLAYGROUND
A modern playground and planned green space will complete the park with plenty of space for children to run and play.

YOUR SUPPORT

YOUR NAME ON A PERMANENT DONOR WALL FOR A GIFT OF $200 PER YEAR FOR FIVE YEARS!

The cost to finance this project would be realized through private philanthropy. To effectively implement our plan, we recognize it will require extraordinary efforts from individuals, families, foundations, and businesses in our community.

The Erick Laine Outdoor Center will present opportunities for donors to name a structure or area on their behalf or in honor/memory of another. Availability is subject to the amount and date of their commitment; pledges can be paid over multiple years (typically 3-5 years).

To learn more about the project or to request an informational meeting, please contact Barb Sweitzer at 716-701-1314 or [email protected].
