Thank You

Thank you to the Coleman Memorial Park Board of Trustees for their continued support of the Friends of Coleman Park and their dedication to the development and preservation of the park for the future generations to come.

The Coleman family, in their Deed of Gift of Coleman Memorial Park to the City of Lebanon, in 1935, required that management of the Park be vested in a Board of Trustees. The Board has grown from its original limit of 5 Trustees to 9 Trustees currently. Trustees, who are appointed by the Court of Common Pleas of Lebanon County, serve lifetime appointments. From time to time, vacancies may occur in the Board of Trustees. If you are interested in serving, please contact the Board of Trustees for an application: Chair, Board of Trustees, Coleman Memorial Park, 1400 W Maple Street, Lebanon, PA 17046.
