Community Conversations
On Thursday, June 11 the Town facilitated the first Community Conversation to explore what we can do, individually, and as a community, to help here in Erie, and in all aspects of our lives to stop the pervasive, long-standing and devastating injustice of discrimination against people of color.

Welcome Back!

The Parks and Recreation Department is gradually opening our programs and facilities and we couldn’t be more excited about it! We kicked off Camp Erie last week and welcomed back campers at the Erie Community Center and at Aspen Ridge Preparatory School. Campers painted their own pottery, played indoor putt-putt, baked some yummy treats and much more!

The Erie Community Center also re-opened this week! For a sneak peek video of what to expect, along with how to register for a timeslot, visit our Erie Community Center page.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Virtual Family Health and Fitness Day on Saturday! It was great to break a virtual sweat with all of you! In case you missed it, check out the video on our Facebook page.
