Recreation Center

Public amenities, such as buildings, parks, or other infrastructural improvements: Include an image (you can find an image and pretend that it is an image of the community amenity, or you can design one) along with a brief explanation of how this amenity will improve the quality of life in Ralston.Include in your description an explanation for why this makes sense for Ralston—that is, how it aligns with Ralston’s community ways as you understand them or challenges them in a way that you think should be challenged.

A recreation center is a good amenity that helps the citizens of Ralston have another way of building up the community. Not only does it serve as a central hub for weight trainers but also serves as a field for local sports teams to train or host games at. In order to fully optimize the recreation a good location will be for the recreation center be place near the elementary school because the recreation center can double as a safe housing place for students if the elementary ever needs to be evacuated. I remember in my community when my elementary school was threatened all students were escorted to the recreation center which was within walking distance and served as our shelter until parents picked up their children. Ralston is a small town community that will welcome anything that reinforces the community and their citizens’ sense of camaraderie.
