Better known as the Penticton Seniors’ Drop-in Centre, the six-acre Robinson Property was granted to the City in 1982 and dedicated as a park. The property has evolved considerably since it changed hands and is now the hub of senior activity in the city hosting pickleball, horseshoes, bocce in addition to the Penticton Seniors’ Drop-in Centre. With requests to continue or expand programming on the site, the Parks and Recreation Master Plan recommended the City create a master plan to prioritize and manage requests on the popular property. Watch this site for information about the property and opportunities to get involved in the development of the plan. (Click on the News Feed tab to see the history of work on this project.)
