"The Village extends its gratitude to all who attended and whose presence and input helped make the event successful. Without the dedication of so many people, this community center wouldn’t have become a reality for our residents," said Village Administrator Bob Coles. "I’m grateful for the support of our elected officials who never gave up on making this happen."

"We were pleased to see strong support from our local leaders, with nearly all of our elected officials in attendance, engaging with residents and celebrating this milestone for South Roxana," said Mayor Callahan.
