The indoor play area for kids. It is so hard to keep kids entertained in the winter for free or little money with no parks to go to. The Valley Mall has a nice play area to take the kids to for free, but it sucks having to drive that far if you’re in CDA.
I’m also excited about a low cost gym with a daycare, and swimming pools. =)

Oh man, I just love the look of that huge building. And it’s been so fun watching it being built. Congratulations to CdA for going for the project.

You have to love that project, such a good thing for this town. I have met the project manager and his family at my humble abode, and I knew way back then that it would be a fantastic thing for this town. I have not been disappointed. I am so glad that whole project went through, we will be so proud of that place for generations to come.
