Community Recreation Center (CRC) Update 

We are fortunate to have blue skies today in Mammoth Lakes. Hamel Contracting Inc., the Town’s contractor for the new Community Recreation Center (CRC) is preparing the floor for the placement of concrete on the eastside of the CRC that will include the lobby area and restrooms, multi-purpose space, 4 locker rooms, with adjoining showers/restrooms, and the AV room/janitor’s closet. The ice rink slab will be completed at a later time. The Town has authorized work to start earlier on Tuesday, August 31 and Wednesday, September 1 to accommodate the significant and critical amount of work for the placement of concrete.

Temporary park closure: For the duration of construction for the new Community Recreation Center (estimated 12 months), the Mammoth Creek Park playground, restrooms and parking lot will be CLOSED to the public. The Town will maintain public restrooms on the eastside of Mammoth Creek Park accessible from the multi-use path.  We invite you to enjoy one of our many playgrounds at Trails End Park, Shady Rest Park and the Community Center.  We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we work towards enhancing our community recreation amenities. For additional information about the new CRC, please visit the dedicated website and look for #crcupdates on the Town's Facebook page.
