Community Center Celebrates 75 Years

The Community Center of La Cañada Flintridge (CCLCF) is celebrating 75 years of service to the foothills community with a celebration on Sept. 21 in the CCLCF auditorium. The semi-formal event will feature live music by The Laurel Canyon Band, passed hors d’oeuvres, an open bar with signature cocktails and a slideshow looking back over the last eight decades. The evening will also include an auction of original artwork by esteemed artist and former LCF resident Kay Snodgrass. Tickets are $75 per person,

“The evening will be a tribute to our past and a toast to our future,” said executive director Betsy Ferguson. “Every participant, staff member, instructor, board member and volunteer over the past 75 years has helped make us who we are today and lay the foundation for what we will become in the future. The evening is a tribute to them and to those we will welcome in the coming decades.”

The Community Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 1948 and housed in a building erected entirely by volunteers between 1949 and 1951. Its mission is to enhance the well-being of the community by bringing people of all ages together for enrichment, recreation and social programs. It has provided a wide variety of programs and services for youth, teens, adults and seniors in the Crescenta-Cañada Foothills area for over 75 years.
