Our next step is to work on growing the Center to become more self-sufficient and a greater asset for our community. We have had a few changes on our board this past year. Our long time Treasurer, Dave Fell, retired from the board and Dave Schmidt, who is the Economic Development Coordinator for the City of Jackson, has come on to replace him. Dave and Ferman Woodberry (our Executive Director) are working on projects to help the sustainability of the Center. Annual survey of constituents.
