 The Finleyville Community Center,
located on Marion Avenue, will be undergoing some interior upgrades under the leadership of the new Board of Directors |
Shortly after its construction was completed in 1954, the Borough of Finleyville handed over the management of the building and grounds to a Board of directors. Over the years various boards have done a tremendous job in keeping the center operating as a solvent enterprise through good times and bad and it wasn’t easy. Mayor Kutsek wishes to extend his thanks to the individuals now stepping down on behalf of the citizens of the Borough of Finleyville and the new board members. A grateful community expresses their thanks to:
Irene Allridge; Russ Allridge; Betty Bradburn; Denise Kegel; Roseanne Rovano; Mary Allexander; Millicent Powell; Margaret Crawford.
