Update on Broomfield Community Center Reconstruction
Thanks for your patience as plans are finalized for the last piece of the beautiful BCC reconstruction project, the opening of the much-anticipated woodshop coming Spring 2022!

Thanks for your continued support and understanding, we look forward to celebrating the reopening with you next year!
