A New Community Room for the CRC and Chebeague
THE VISION
The Chebeague Rec Center is excited to announce its plan to convert the Craft Room into a Community Room. This space will be open to the public with a new entranceway, offer comfortable seating and tables, and have coffee, tea, and snacks available for visitors. All will be welcome to have a cup of coffee, get some work done, or break out a deck of cards.
The new room is part of the CRC's long-term vision to create spaces and opportunities for community members to come together. Last year, picnic tables and a new outdoor seating area was introduced in front of the Rec. This year, we are focusing on transforming the Craft Room so that it connects with this outdoor space. The Community Room will still be able to host programs such as crafting events, game nights, and after school programs. But it will also serve a new purpose as a gathering space for all community members. The CRC aims to open the Community Room by the summer of 2022.

MAKING IT HAPPEN
The CRC is launching a fundraising campaign to make these remodeling and construction plans possible. The CRC received a very generous matching grant of up to $10,000 to support this new project. This means that donations received now will be matched by this grant, meaning that now is an excellent time to give to the CRC and maxmize your impact! Funds for this project will be used to purchase new furniture and appliances, repaint the floor and walls, and build a front-facing entranceway into the room.
