North Webster Community Center engages its community through meaningful opportunities to gather and connect.
CLARITY
North Webster Community Center has served as the heart of community wellbeing in North Webster for nearly 25 years. Housed in a building that was once a beloved school, the community center utilizes its spacious facilities to offer its own programs, collaborate with other organizations to create engagement opportunities, and provide spaces for nonprofits and for-profits to serve the community.
K21 is proud to support organizations that build and enhance community infrastructure and amenities for health and wellness opportunities. The North Webster Community Center is a wonderful example of this commitment!
COMMITMENT
From its 20+ year partnership with the Kosciusko Community YMCA, to its nutrition programs, to its annual volleyball leagues, to its indoor and outdoor pickleball courts and more, the North Webster Community Center unites residents of all ages, interests and abilities through activities that promote health and activity, no matter their skill, financial situation or background. This collaboration creates synergy for residents looking to invest in their health and wellness.
IMPACT
“Having all of these organizations here to serve the community in one place benefits those we serve,” said Emily Shipley, Executive Director of the North Webster Community Center. “Whether you’re a large organization like The Y or a small business, we can better serve the whole community when we come together—literally under one roof!”
Emily continued, “When people step into our building, they step into community. Whether they want to go for a solo walk or participate in a yoga class, they can do so knowing they’re doing it in the spirit of togetherness. Everyone who leaves the community center after finishing their activity for the day leaves with a sense of connection that they carry out into every aspect of their life and share with others.”
We’re grateful to North Webster Community Center for encouraging a community culture that prioritizes health.
