Fall soccer and volleyball is active at the youth center. Sign ups for basketball are coming soon after completion of those sports. Pickleball is also active and open to anyone who wants to play on Tuesday nights. He said most league numbers have increased. Eddington pointed out something new.

He and the mayor formed a couple committees; one committee seeks to aid low-income families use the community center and use everything that it offers. "We want everyone to use it," Eddington said. There's also a safety committee seeking to prepare for emergencies and protect kids during the check-in and check-out process.
