A dedication ceremony to mark the installation of several improvements to the 95-year-old Camas Community Center will be held Wednesday, Oct. 6.
Those recent additions to the facility located at 1718 S.E. Seventh Ave., in the Oak Park area, include an entryway and a new audio-visual system.
The festivities will begin at 5 p.m. with activities and arts and crafts for kids and demonstrations of the new sound system’s capabilities. The dedication, led by current Mayor Paul Dennis and former Mayor Nan Henriksen, will start at 6 p.m. Refreshments will be served throughout the evening, which concludes at 7 p.m.
“It’s really a general celebration of good things happening at the community center,” said Henriksen, who is the current president of the non-profit group Friends of the Camas Community Center.
Audio-visual system
Thanks to donations from non-profit organizations and local businesses, the community center is now equipped with a state-of-the-art audio-visual system.
