Visioning Set for Reiche Community Center

Residents, property and business owners, educators, public officials and other stakeholders will gather on Saturday, September 30, to dream and draw their vision for Reiche Community Center. Working in design teams alongside professional designers, participants will create maps, drawings and sketches that image the future of a great community center.

The community center includes a swimming pool, branch library, health station, gymnasium and program space. The workshop will raise awareness and will allow all those interested in the center to develop plans for an active, vibrant facility.

The very interactive Community Design Workshop, sponsored by the West End Neighborhood Association (WENA) and local businesses, is free and open to the public. All workshop materials, continental breakfast and a working lunch will be provided. Pre-registration by September 27 is encouraged as space is limited. Registration brochures are available online at www.wenamaine.org. More information is available by calling John Navarra at 775-0105, ext. 161, or by e-mail to wendneighborhood@yahoo.com.

The West End Neighborhood Association was founded in 2003. Its mission is to address issues and concerns that affect the quality of life of those who live and/or work in the West End.
