About Us
The High School Annex in 1985 before it's renovation into the Omro Area Community Center.
|
The Center was built on the philosophy that people of all ages can learn and grow with each other while gaining an appreciation for the gifts that each age group brings to our community. This philosophy stems from the negative results seen throughout the country as we increasingly separate our youth from older adults. Older adults provide our youth with a sense of history, a good role model, good work ethic, and a strong set of values. Youth provide our older adults with a renewed sense of energy, a positive role, a sense of purpose, and the opportunity to impact the future. Therefore, the Center takes it role of providing inter-generational opportunities very seriously.

This historic building, formerly the home of the Omro High School gymnasium, has been renovated to accommodate the various needs of the community. The first floor boasts a large multipurpose room used for church services, bridal/baby showers, family get together parties or whatever your needs happen to be. We also have a commons area, a kitchen with all the amenities, restroom facilities and hold the offices housing the Community Center staff, the staff of Future Omro, a Chamber/Main Street Partnership and the Community Development Department for the city of Omro. The second floor holds the office of American Legion Post 234, a medical room, board room, an FVTC classroom and a few rooms available for rent.
The Omro Area Community Center is a 501 (c)(3) organization that is governed by a seven member board of directors and is overseen by an executive director.
