Its first motorized ambulance was gifted by Henry Keiper in May 1916. Although there were many upgrades before and after December 1946, it was around that time the hospital had to expand due to the baby boom post-WWII that drastically increased the number of child births. In January 1991, Lancaster General Health created a program called "ChildProtect Immunization Program" providing free immunizations to minimize future disease. Lancaster General Health's Lancaster General Hospital consistently receives top grades for safety from independent groups such as Leapfrog.

Lancaster Theological Seminary

Lancaster Theological Seminary is a seminary of the United Church of Christ in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It was founded in 1825 by members of the German Reformed Church in the United States to provide theological education for prospective clergy and other church leaders. It was acquired in 2025 by Moravian University and merged into MU's school of theology. History 19th century After a failed attempt to open the school in Frederick, Maryland, and another in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the school opened in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, on the campus of Dickinson College on March 11, 1825, with a class of five students. Later lectures were held in the "old Reformed Church of Carlisle." At this time the seminary struggled financially and due to the fund raising campaign of James Ross Reily (1788–1884) the seminary was able to relocate to York in 1829. Here attendance averaged between 12 and 25 students. In 1836–37, the seminary moved again to Mercersburg, Pennsylvania under the charter of Marshall College. Here the work of such celebrated professors as John Williamson Nevin, Friederich Augustus Rauch, and Philip Schaff gave rise to the Mercersburg theology, noted for its historic concerns for worship, sacraments, and Church in its ecumenical expressions. In 1853, Marshall College moved to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, consolidating with Franklin College to form Franklin and Marshall College. In 1871, the seminary moved to the campus of Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster. While viewed as a temporary arrangement, the present site of the seminary was not purchased until 1893. The buildings were completed and occupied in 1894. 20th century For most of its history (109 of its 168 years), LTS was the sole seminary of the Reformed Church in the United States (German Reformed Church). With the formation of the Evangelical and Reformed Church in 1934, the seminary became one of three seminaries serving that newly united denomination. LTS is currently one of seven seminaries holding full relationship with the UCC, a denomination formed in 1957 by the union of the E&R Church and most of the Congregational Christian Churches. Lancaster Theological Seminary is an official Open and affirming seminary. 21st century In 2025, LTS was acquired by Moravian University in Bethlehem, PA and will combine LTS with Moravian Theological Seminary to form the Moravian University School of Theology. The Lancaster campus will continue its affiliation with the United Church of Christ, while the Bethlehem campus will continue its affiliation with the Moravian Church.

Larkin Covered Bridge (Chester Springs, Pennsylvania)

The Larkin Covered Bridge is a 60-foot-long (18 m), Burr truss wooden covered bridge that is located outside of Chester Springs, Chester County, Pennsylvania, near the village of Eagle. The bridge, which originally crossed over Marsh Creek, now spans a dry ditch and is a feature of the Upper Uwchlan Township trail system. History The original bridge was built in 1854 to span Marsh Creek, a tributary of the east branch of the Brandywine Creek, beside Jesse Larkin's Gristmill near the village of Milford Mills, 2.5 miles (4.0 km) southwest of its current location. The bridge was rebuilt in 1881. In 1972, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania acquired the Larkin Bridge and relocated it 1 mile (1.6 km) to the north prior to the evacuation of Milford Mills and the creation of Marsh Creek Lake in Marsh Creek State Park. The bridge was used as a pedestrian crossing between two day camps in the new state park. Larkin Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. In 1998, Upper Uwchlan Township acquired the bridge, and in 2006, the township government worked with developers (Toll Brothers, Orleans, and K. Hovnanian) to dismantle and relocate the bridge. Larkin Covered Bridge was rebuilt on the trail path next to the entrance to the Byers Station housing development on Graphite Mine Road near the village of Eagle. Gallery References
Laurel Lake (Cumberland County, Pennsylvania)

Laurel Lake—also known as Laurel Forge Pond—is a water body with recreation area at Pine Grove Furnace State Park. It is located in the eastern part of Cooke Township, Cumberland County. History The lake was created for supplying a water race to Laurel Forge by an 1830 dam on Mountain Creek. In 1855 and again in 1889, the downstream Upper Mill dam (now Eaton-Dikeman mill) was breached by downwash when the Laurel Forge breached. In 1919, the Laurel Dam breached and washed out the Hunters Run and Slate Belt branch and breached the Upper Mill dam at Mount Holly. The lake was a popular camp location. The Camp Rothrock Boy Scout facility in the area, with wooden shelters and a dining room, used Laurel Lake's beaches in 1922. In 1921, "Laurel Lake Park" was one of 26 camps built by the Civilian Conservation Corps and maintained by the state for camping tourists, and the public camp was still going strong in 1923. By 1929, the Gettysburg Academy conducted week-end camps at Laurel Dam. (A dam repair was performed in 1929.) Camp Lion was at the Laurel Dam in 1933. In 1947, sand was added to the lake's beach. Gettysburg College used the park for football camp in both 1941 (at the 1941 Carlisle YMCA Camp site) and in 1947. Camp Thompson was at the lake in 1949 and 1953. A fire burned 7 acres near the lake in 1963. In 1965 the lake was closed due to contamination and subsequently re-opened. In 1979 the Laurel Forge Pond name was designated in the USGS's Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) as feature 1178931, 40°02′22″N 77°16′09″W). Laurel Lake was so named in 1990 (1194510, 40°02′22″N 77°16′13″W). The lake was drained for repairs in November 1994 and then re-opened. The lake and dam underwent reconditioning in 2006–2007. Laurel Lake is now part of Pine Grove Furnace State Park, one of Pennsylvania's state parks. See also List of lakes in Pennsylvania References External links "Pine Grove Furnace State Park".

Also that year, the Ames store closed and began conversion to a Kmart, which opened in September 1994. Boscov's expanded by 52,800 square feet (4,910 m2) in 1994, and the mall interior was renovated with skylights and new flooring. McCrory Stores closed at the mall in 1995. One year later, Ben Franklin Crafts replaced it. The space is now Old Navy. A Hoyts movie theater opened next to the mall in 1998. 21st century In July 2005, the mall was sold by PREIT to Laurel Mall, LLC for $33.5 million, including assumed debt of $22.6 million.

Laurel Ridge State Park

Laurel Ridge State Park is a 13,625-acre (5,514 ha) Pennsylvania state park that with parcels in Cambria, Fayette, Somerset, and Westmoreland counties, Pennsylvania in the United States. History and location The park is made up of several non-contiguous tracts, separated by various state game lands and state forest districts, on top of the Laurel Hill geologic formation. The park was approved by Pennsylvania Governor Raymond P. Shafer on July 10, 1967. The park lies within the Appalachian mixed mesophytic forests ecoregion. Much of the 70-mile Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail travels through Laurel Ridge State Park. That trail begins at Ohiopyle State Park to the southwest and reaches Conemaugh Gorge near Johnstown. All of that trail's overnight shelter areas are within the grounds of the state park. Uniquely among Pennsylvania hiking trails, that trail is protected as a linear state park, coordinated by personnel at Laurel Ridge State Park. Recreation In addition to hiking, the park is open to hunting, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling. Hunting is permitted on almost all of Laurel Ridge State Park. The most common game species are ruffed grouse, turkey and white-tailed deer. The hunting of groundhogs is prohibited. Hunters are expected to follow the rules and regulations of the Pennsylvania Game Commission. There are 35 miles (56 km) of trails open to cross-country skiing during the winter months at Laurel Ridge State Park and over 70 miles (110 km) of trails open to snow mobiles.

Laurel Summit State Park

Laurel Summit State Park is a 6-acre (2.4 ha) Pennsylvania state park in Cook Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania in the United States. It is also a picnic area with a scenic view of Linn Run on the summit of Laurel Mountain. The temperatures at Laurel Summit State Park are generally several degrees cooler than the surrounding towns in the valleys. The elevation of the park is 2,739 feet (835 m) above sea level. The area in and surrounding Laurel Summit State Park is now a thriving second growth forest. One hundred years ago it was generally described as a "waste land". The ridges of the Laurel Mountain had once been covered with old-growth forest. These forests were clear cut during the lumber era that swept over most of the mountains and forests of Pennsylvania during the mid-to-late 19th century and very early 20th century. The lumbermen stripped the mountains. They took the logs to the sawmill where they were cut into lumber. Smaller logs were used to reinforce the mine shafts of the many coal mines throughout southwestern Pennsylvania and West Virginia. The bark of the hemlock tree was used as a source of tannin at the tanneries of the area. The only thing the lumbermen left behind was the treetops. These tree tops were left to dry. The passing steam locomotives of the Pittsburgh, Westmoreland and Somerset Railroad would ignite this dry brush causing massive wildfires that swept through the mountains and valleys. In 1909, after the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania had purchased the land from the lumbermen, Forester John R. Williams reported, "I should say that fully three-fifths (60%) of the reserve had been burned since the lumbering was done. The fires did great damage to the young growth. Some places were covered with nothing but ferns and blackberry bushes." Scars from these fires can still be seen today in the Laurel Summit vicinity. Most of the wildlife in the area was devastated due to the destruction of their habitat or over hunting. White-tailed deer were imported from Michigan and New York to reestablish what had once been a thriving population of deer. These deer were released throughout Pennsylvania. The current population of deer in Pennsylvania are descended from the original stock that was introduced in 1910 after the lumbermen had moved out of the area.
