Today marked an important milestone for the City of Alpharetta and the Ed Isakson YMCA! This partnership began in 1995 with the construction of the YMCA on city property. This facility has become a cornerstone of the community and serves thousands of residents and families every day.
The Preston Ridge Community Center (adjacent to the YMCA) celebrated its grand opening and is a great example of the long-term relationship.
The City of Alpharetta’s Recreation, Parks & Cultural Services department will program and operate the Community Center to bring diverse and fun programming to the citizens of the community and will help to better serve several populations including seniors, teens and community members with special needs. Plans to begin programming, including art classes, workshops and instructional programs, will begin in early 2021 and will compliment what the YMCA is already providing.
In addition, the Preston Ridge Community Center will be available for community groups to use for their activities, such as HOA meetings and private rentals as well.
