Mount Olive Township Information

When you live in desirable Mount Olive, you’re part of a family. The township recreation department has so much to offer all members of the community—from kids to seniors. From cooking and painting classes to sports and exercise, there’s something for everyone. And there’s always something going on at Turkey Brook Park—from the Fairy & Pirate Festival to the Monster Mash, the Raiders of the Lost Park Mud Run, the Food Truck Festival, and many more. The highlight of our summers is the annual Mount Olive Carnival and fireworks show.

  • Too many to list here, see Mt. Olive Recreation to learn more about our community activities and events.
  • The Mount Olive Senior Center provides services and information for our senior (over 55) community members, many of them free. There are plenty of leisure and recreational activities to enhance the physical and social well-being of our seniors.
