Happy 40th Anniversary to the Lafayette Community Center!
This year, we're proud to celebrate this incredible Chamber anniversary milestone and recognize a valued member that has been enriching our community since 1986.
For four decades, the Lafayette Community Center has been a place where neighbors connect, learn, play, and grow. From recreation programs for all ages and fitness classes to arts, camps, community events, park access, hiking trails, and the beloved multi-sport rink, the Center continues to bring people together and create lasting memories.
Thank you for 40 years of dedication to serving our community. Here's to many more years of recreation, connection, and community!

A Brighter Day Charity Is Celebrating 5 Years with the Lafayette Chamber!
A Brighter Day Charity was founded in 2015 with a simple but important mission: to help teens and young adults recognize, understand, and navigate the challenges of stress and depression.
"Our message has always been one of hope: Storms Don't Last Forever. There Will Always Be A Brighter Day."
"As we celebrate this 5th anniversary with the Lafayette Chamber, we are grateful for the opportunity to serve and partner with such a caring community. Together, we can raise awareness, support young people and their families, and remind everyone that hope, healing, and brighter days are always possible."
