“The CCBA is a community gem. It provides something for everyone, whether it’s the free drop-in center for kids, the indoor pool and basketball courts, group fitness classes or the licensed preschool program, all ages are welcome and encouraged to be active and engaged.” – Liz K.

Make a Gift in Honor of Jim Vanier:
This year we are celebrating Jim Vanier’s 50 years at the Carter Community Building (CCB)! Jim, the Youth Program Coordinator and the CCBA’s longest-running employee, has dedicated his life to working with Lebanon youth at the after-school and summer Youth Drop-In Center. Jim grew up frequenting the CCB, and by the age of 15 he began working part-time for the organization. By 1973 he was a full-time employee, and the rest is history!
If you’d like to honor Jim and his lifelong commitment to the CCB, consider a gift to support kids’ programming and the mission of the CCBA organization.
