Davis Community Center director reports programs, 24‑hour gym growth and fundraising
Summary
Director Nancy Bandemer told the council the Davis Center has 80 signups for 24‑hour gym access, is planning a Martin Luther King Day program and a spring trivia night after a Trivia Night fundraiser, and is exploring light sensors and sponsorships to offset rising costs.
Nancy Bandemer, director of the Davis Community Center, briefed the council on a range of recreation and fundraising activities and urged support for the Mini Food Center.
Bandemer said the center is "working with Mr. Holly’s finance class regarding the Davis Center" and that "24-hour gym access now has 80 people signed up." She described plans for a Martin Luther King Day program, an expanded holiday market with 48 vendors, and a spring trivia fundraiser following a recent Trivia Night that the transcript records as raising funds (meeting materials list this as $6,000). Bandemer said the center is looking into installing light sensors in the workout room and that Herrell Electric has offered to donate materials if the city covers labor. She also asked for monetary donations to the Mini Food Center in case SNAP benefits are interrupted by a federal shutdown and thanked Kune’s for providing transport assistance for weekly food pickups.
Bandemer signaled potential cost-savings steps, including trimming weekend hours, and said staff are continuing outreach to secure year-end sponsorships to help cover gymnasium operating costs.
