ReStore has a new floor and is once again open for business, meals, and events.
The community center closed in mid-December, after sponsoring many Christmas events, and reopened Tuesday with the nonskid, multicolored floor.
Here, Dana Walters, director, and Robert Kanzig, assistant director, admire the upgrade.
The original floor was installed many years ago when the Main Street location was known as Messick's Dime Store, later to be Peper Drugs for many years.
