SOAP LAKE — The Soap Lake Community and Senior Center will host its second meeting for the newly formed Events Committee on Tuesday, Jan. 13, at 5 p.m. This initiative aims to revitalize community engagement through family-friendly events.

“We really want to focus on family-friendly and all ages events for our community,” volunteer Genevieve Gray said.

The committee was created in response to community members expressing their desire to restart events that had previously been successful in bringing people together.

Gray said it’s important for community involvement in the committee.

“Anyone is welcome to attend. We really need the volunteer power to make it happen,” Gray said. “We are trying to get people more involved so we are bringing in events that people will attend and enjoy.”

The committee is eager to gather feedback from residents regarding past events and explore new ideas for future programming.

“Even high school students are welcome; we really want a well-rounded kind of feedback,” she said. “We are hoping to sit down and throw all the ideas on the table, then figure out common threads to create new events or potentially bring back events that haven’t happened in years.”

The meeting is open to anyone from the community and will be held at the Soap Lake Community and Senior Center, located at 121 Second Ave. Residents are encouraged to bring their suggestions and enthusiasm to help shape the future of community events, Gray said.
