Whitefish Community Center has been accepted by the Whitefish Community Foundation as a participant in the 2020 Great Fish Challenge! This is really big news. In 2019 we did not apply to be part of the Great Fish Community Challenge due to the building damage we were dealing with as a result of the three-story loft structure being built directly to our east. We have confirmation that our building will be repaired, so we are moving full speed ahead now to plan for our future. The launch date for the Great Fish Community Challenge is July 30. There will be 55 nonprofits from Flathead Valley competing for your support. We are fortunate to live in an area where so many people are diligently work

We don’t have a SPECIFIC date yet for our Community Center to reopen. We still depend on the directives of our governor, Steve Bullock. However, we have been preparing and planning for when it happens, and we can tell you now about a few things that will change. We will be sanitizing surfaces that are commonly touched, multiple times a day. For instance, door handles and faucet handles in the restrooms, the main building, and the kitchen. We have a new “floor standing” hand sanitizer dispenser that will greet you as you enter through the front door. We hope to get another dispenser for the side door/activity room. At our self-service coffee and snack bar, all the snacks will be individually
