October 28, 2015 - Recently, the City of Center created a position and budget for a Parks and Recreation Director. The City has hired Jason Mitchell for this position.

I use the terms “we” throughout this piece because of the fact that so many people in the City strongly support the City’s decision to create this position.

We believe the City has shown tremendous vision and financial courage to create a position and support a department that can have a direct and positive influence on the youth of our community, and even create programs for adults.
