Multiple Community Agencies Receive Funds From Town Of Century

February 5, 2008

The Town of Century voted Monday night to fund several community agencies and organizations.

The council voted to provide Carver/Century K-8 School with a $500 donation toward an upcoming trip to the Alabama Shakespeare Festival in Montgomery on April 24. The fifth through eight grades will be attending a performance of the “Count of Monte Cristo”.

The council originally considered a $250 donation, but that amount was quickly doubled.

“$250 is good,” said council member Gary Riley, but it would be good if the town could show a better donation…let the people know we are doing what we can for our kids.”

The council approved a motion by council member Nadine McCaw to make $2,000 donations each to the Carver Community Center, the Alger-Sullivan Historical Society, Century Little League, the Century Sports Association and the Century Chamber of Commerce.

Each group had received the same $2,000 donation last year, except for the chamber. The chamber of commerce had received a $5,000 donation from the city during the last fiscal year.
