Monroe County commissioners presented a certificate of special recognition to Growing Place Child Care Center during their July 15 meeting to mark the center's 50th anniversary.
The chair introduced the recognition and thanked the center for "helping children and parents and families along the way for that long."

I'm the executive director of Current Place," and Linda Barney identified herself as the center's HR and communications director. The board moved to approve the certificate and the motion carried by voice vote.
Commissioners emphasized the center's long-standing local role: "Your commitment and dedication to providing child care has made a difference for many," the chair said while presenting the certificate on behalf of the county. The recognition was accompanied by applause and brief remarks from center staff.
