Trail Town Meeting
Monday, August 4 at 7pm
Have you heard about the enthusiastic group of community members taking steps to put Brookville on the map as a designated Trail Town? We're lucky enough to have them meeting at the cafe on the first Monday of each month.
Whether you're a concerned citizen or a small business owner with potential benefits, all are welcome to jump in the conversation at any time.

CREATE's Certified Kitchen Project
Our kitchen project is under way.
