#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Starin Park Community Ctr. Enlargement/Remodeling in ’99

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.

Today we have a photo from the summer of 1999 taken by member George Scharfenberg, who left the society hundreds of photos of things happening in Whitewater in the decades of the 1990s and 2000’s. Here he documents the remodeling of the Starin Park Community Building. The building was damaged by a fire in March of 1998 and in the summer of 1999, the building underwent an enlargement and remodeling that gave us the great Senior Center building we have today.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
