Last week the Community Table Committee announced that the Yates Community Center has been chosen as the beneficiary for the highly anticipated 2023 Community Table Dinner. This annual event brings together the community to support a local nonprofit organization, and this year’s selection highlights the outstanding work and mission of the Yates Community Center.
The Yates Community Center is dedicated to enhancing the physical and mental well-being of all residents and visitors by promoting and providing cultural, recreational, athletic, and educational opportunities. Currently, they are undertaking a capital campaign to raise funds for the construction of a new field house. The envisioned field house will feature a multi-purpose turf field, two multi-purpose hard courts, and an elevated walking track. This new facility will enable the community center to offer year-round community programming and events, catering to a wide range of interests and age groups.
“We are honored to have the Yates Community Center as the beneficiary for this year’s Community Table Dinner,” said Jessica Bacher, co-chair of the Community Table Dinner planning committee. “Their commitment to improving the well-being of our community aligns perfectly with the spirit of this event. By supporting their capital campaign for the new field house, we aim to contribute to their vision of creating a vibrant hub for recreation, education, and community engagement.”
