Our Story

In 1995, Camptonville residents started holding regular Town Hall Meetings to decide what would make Camptonville a better place to live. At every meeting, people said that “having a Community Center, a place to connect" was a top priority. 

In 2015, the local Masonic organization donated their lodge building, built in 1949, to the Camptonville Community Service District for use as a community center and local history museum. The building was in very poor condition and due to its age was in desperate need of repairs and renovation. Since then, thousands of hours of volunteer labor and thousands of donated dollars have improved the Center greatly, and made it usable for community events, rentals and meetings. Yet, much remains to be done.
