SPIEGEL BUILDING CONSTRUCTION CLOSURE THIS FRIDAY (8/18), PROGRAMS CONTINUE

Program locations include Palmyra Road facility, schools, Library, Senior Center, Town Court 

The Town of Pittsford's Spiegel Community Center will close at 8:00pm on Friday, August 18 as construction for the building's restoration and improvement project gets underway. Pittsford Recreation programming will continue at other locations, including the Town's recently-purchased facility at 5611 Palmyra Road, at the Pittsford Community Library (24 State Street), at the Town's Senior Center and Town Court facilities at 3750 Monroe Avenue, and at local schools.

The Town facility at 5611 Palmyra Road, located across Marsh Road from the Post Office, will serve as the interim community center. During the Spiegel renovation it will house Town wellness and fitness programs such as ballet, aerobics, yoga and others. It also will house the Recreation Department's offices.

Through our partnership with the Pittsford Central School District, Town After School programs for children in kindergarten through grade 5 will be offered at Pittsford elementary schools: Jefferson Road Elementary, Mendon Center Elementary, Thornell Road Elementary and Park Road Elementary. The Town's Kindergarten-Wrap program will be offered in collaboration with ArtsROC on Monroe Avenue.

The Pittsford Community Library will host babysitter training, academic offerings and seminar-style classes. The Senior Center will be the site of bridge class and Martial Arts for Women, among other programs; karate classes will be held at the Town Court. The Town Hall meeting room will be available for community group meeting reservations.

Programming at these alternate locations will continue throughout the construction period, which is expected to last for approximately 12-14 months.
