Good morning, Lancaster.

Eight individuals were honored for their community service at the "8 Who Care" awards reception held at Elizabethtown College yesterday—Dave Costerella received the grand prize for his work helping the homeless in Lancaster.

Lancaster residents attended an open house hosted by Chirisa Technology Parks to discuss an AI data center under development on Greenfield Road—where experts answered questions on water, power, and air quality.

Some residents were pleased while others—like Charlotte Altimare—said they were frustrated by unanswered queries on forever chemicals and the lack of community input.

Dutch Wonderland will open its Dutch Winter Wonderland on Saturday, Nov.

Frank Ike, a 21-year-old from Manheim Township, is training to qualify for the Winter Olympics in luge with the event set in Cortina, Italy in 2026—his path changed when a childhood trip to Blue Mountain Resort shifted his focus from wrestling and lacrosse.

He has faced injuries like broken hands and a partner's dislocated shoulder—his family stays proud as he awaits final team selection a few weeks before the Games.
