History

Back in 1988 a teacher, an attorney, a newspaper reporter, a contractor/carpenter, a community activist/landscaper, and a bookkeeper/house painter/therapist living on Chappaquiddick decided their community needed a gathering place. With the generous donation of the land by Bill and Ann Brine that dream came true. In the meantime, the community met and discussed how to make the community center a reality. This group of folks, known as the founders today, were appointed to represent the community and sign the founding documents. Their dream became a reality when the building we now know as the Chappy Community Center, built with volunteer and paid labor, was ready for occupancy in the summer of 1992.
