IMPORTANT NOTICE
During the 2023-2024 school year, Drop-In Hours and Specialty Programming at the teen center will be temporarily suspended. Our board is currently in the process of reimagining the Fifth Corner. 
 

February 2024 update from the Board

  1. We extended our deadline to January 10, 2024 for people to complete our Survey.    A BIG THANK YOU TO THOSE WHO WERE ABLE TO COMPLETE IT!  Click here to review the SURVEY RESULTS

  2. The 5th Corner Board met to discuss the survey results, conduct a SWOT analysis and have a dialogue about what is needed to have a viable and sustainable future.  It was productive and energizing dialogue with the board. The foremost objective is establishing stability within our operational team. More precisely, the board is actively pursuing a director who can make a substantial long-term commitment to the position.

  3. Additionally, it is imperative to explore collaborative opportunities and partnerships. We are fortunate to have board members representing a variety of organizations and entities throughout the community including Saline Area Schools, Saline District Library, Saline Rec Center, Saline Leadership Institute, local business ATA Martial Arts, the Well Church, an energized community volunteer and a previous 5th Corner Mentor who runs Next Step Rec in Dexter

  4. Next steps: the board will synthesize our ideas and draft a plan for discussion at the March meeting.
