The GJ Community Center Campaign is thrilled to announce that at last night’s city council meeting, councilors present voted unanimously to put a community center measure on the April 2019 city ballot.

Now that we know the measure is on the ballot – thanks to your endless support – it’s time to get down to campaigning! Please support the cause by joining us for the Community Center Kickstart 5K Fun Run on Saturday. All proceeds directly benefit the campaign for the community center! Register at bit.ly/communitycenterkickstart.

You can make a donation to the campaign  at www.gjcommunitycenter.org/donate/ or simply volunteer! Email us at info@gjcommunitycenter.org with any questions. This mission never could have gotten this far without the endless work of its supporters and GJCCC is eternally grateful.

One step closer! We hope you can come celebrate with us at the 5K this weekend.
