🌟 New at the Finley Community Center! 🌟
Come check out our adorable new playhouses—now open in the Cedar Room for kids (and kids at heart!) to enjoy! 🏡💛
A HUGE shout out to Steven and Jean Elliott, longtime owners of the Fundemonium in Rohnert Park, for generously donating these playhouses after retiring and closing their store.
And an equally big thank you to our amazing volunteers—Paul Desideri, Bob Kiefer, Nancy Brown, Garrett Blake, Gina Brown, Petter Rosser, and Jack Matheson—who assembled everything beautifully. 🙌
Over the next few weeks, we’ll be adding fun furnishings to make the play spaces more interactive. This cozy indoor area will be a great spot for families, especially during chilly or rainy winter days.
Staff are already dreaming up creative ways to use this space in the future, but for now, it’s open and ready for the community to enjoy anytime the center is open, Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. 🎉
