Energy Retrofit
YOUR Methow Valley Community Center
Energy Retrofit Project
For nearly five decades, the Methow Valley Community Center Association (MVCCA) has been the heart of our valley, stewarding a place where every year about 35,000 community members and visitors, of all ages and backgrounds, gather to connect, learn and find support. Retrofitting this 113 year-old building with an HVAC system and insulation package will support and enhance the Community Center as an essential gathering space with clean air and state-of-the art climate control.
Preparing the building to serve our
community for its next hundred years!
