Rector Community Center

Built in 1992, the community center quickly lived up to its name, becoming the central gathering place for a number of community and private events. It is a common meeting place for clubs and reunions, parties and political events.

It is the City’s polling location and the site of periodic Red Cross blood drives. In the bad ice storm of 2009, it became a staging area and temporary shelter for citizens without heat and power. Volunteers served more than 1000 free meals a day.
