Rec center gets $50,000 Me Foundation grant; concrete work ongoing, elevator due in fall

Cameron County Commissioners · April 16, 2026

Summary

Officials said Cameron County received a $50,000 Me Foundation grant for recreation center improvements and expects a $140,000 reimbursement from an earlier grant; concrete work is underway and an elevator lift is expected this fall.

Chair (S1) announced the county received a $50,000 award from the Me Foundation to support recreation center improvements and said the county is expecting a $140,000 reimbursement from a prior grant in the coming week. "We are receiving our 1st $140,000 reimbursement from the bead grant that we had put upfront in the next week or so," S1 said.

Concrete work at the rec center required a temporary closure of some spaces but officials said the lift is expected to arrive in the fall and further siding and finishing work will continue once the concrete work is completed. County staff said the temporary disruptions are being managed and thanked contractors and crews for progress.
