Why it's a Community Center, not Senior Center

The Evansville Community Center project validation committee will meet tonight.

One of the very first decisions made several years ago, and explained by Chris Eager at a Evansville School Board meeting, was that due to the small number of seniors in Evansville, and the large amount of money needed to build a center, it was only feasible to create a Community Center that served all ages.

In the posts earlier below, see the number of seniors, Male and Female, and it is very clear that in order to have a chance of success, this must be a "circle of life" project. Stay tuned to the Evansville Observer for the minutes of the validation committee as they proceed.

    I think the idea of a comminity center is a wonderful idea for the town of evansville, I think it will all most pay for it self, I need a nonsmoking banquet hall for a family get together yet is winter. it would be great to be able to rent the center.
