Lawrence-Gregory Community Center at Dade Street

The Lawrence-Gregory Community Center is one of the oldest community centers in the Parks and Recreation system. Housing a gymnasium, meeting and activity rooms, it was opened in 1959, and continues to be an important community hub. The Center was renamed in 2002 in honor of Mr. James Lawrence, retired Recreation Superintendent, and Beulah Gregory, the first Supervisor of the facility. In 2008, the building received a complete renovation.

The LGCC runs an after school program, its gym currently hosts a variety of basketball and volleyball leagues also features a weight and exercise room.

The Lawrence-Gregory Community Center is the site of many special events during the course of the year, including the yearly Halloween Carnival. It is also a site in the City's Summer Playgrounds Camp program.
