Community Center Designs

Monday, January 21st, 2008

Earlier this fall, Horizons partnered with a group of Interior Design students from the University of Idaho to explore various design options for the new community center we want to develop. The students came up with 2 different designs and presented them at a showcase last November. If you’d be interested in viewing the designs, please check them out at by visiting our display at the Troy Library. We’d love to hear your input and get your ideas of how a community center would best serve you.

Working to Unite the Community

Monday, January 21st, 2008

An important goal of the Community Connectedness team is to develop a Coordinating Council which would establish better lines of communication between the different groups that are working to make improvements in Troy. This would increase community connectedness and allow groups to work together toward common goals. In order to accomplish this, we need to recruit members from each group who can serve as representatives on the committee. We’d like to invite members of all groups working in Troy to take part. If you are interested in becoming involved, please contact Heidi at 835-4088 or post a comment.

We are ready for action!

Community Connectedness:

Co-Leader, Julie Redford, rjred@elkrivertv.net

This team will be focusing on improving community communication in general, but will also focus on the creation of a community center. Currently the team is working with some design students from the University of Idaho to develop a proposal that fits the unique needs of the Troy community. The group is interested in learning how members of the community feel about this issue. Do you support the idea? What would you like to see in terms of how the building would be designed and what it would be used for? Please be sure to share your ideas. The next meeting for this group will be on Tuesday, November 13th from 6:30-7:30 at City Hall.
