One way that we help "Strengthen the Spirit of Wellington." Is by coordinating events to encourage the community to socialize and support our downtown businesses, the school, and many non profits organizations.
We try to provide free or low cost entertainment that is family friendly. Festivals, games, music performances, craft shows, and more.
We would love more members to join our committees and be active in our strategic planning. Call us and we’ll match up your interests/talents! It’s fun, productive, and you can really make a difference in our community!
