Celebrating DAVE CORT On June 30, 2023, Dave Cort retired after 32 years as the Community Center’s Executive Director and moved into a new, part-time position as the Community Ambassador. When Dave was hired in 1991, the Center had a $30,000 budget and Dave was the only paid employee, working 13 hours a week. The success of Dave’s career can be tracked alongside the amazing growth of the organization. Today, the Community Center has a $2 Million budget, 25 employees, and robust programs in the areas of: recreation, wellness, youth & teens, seniors, emergency response/disaster preparedness, food security, visual and performing arts, education, workforce development, and public health. The Center has restored and improved our historic building and in 2010, under Dave’s leadership and in collaboration with the Gym Committee, the Joint Use Community Gym was built and created new pathways for healthy living and community building.
