September 2008 Update:
The Avery Center is still moving forward, however things have changed. The economy has slowed our fundraising efforts and as a result we were not able to obtain the building we had originally hoped to move into. This has also pushed back our opening date to 2009. However, with some of our struggles comes renewed hope. We are now looking at new locations that are smaller and more affordable, and still in Carroll County. A smaller location will also allow us to start sooner than waiting for a large building. We will still have space for those who have inquired about the center and for those who have signed up. Things are continuing to build and we are very excited. We thank you all for your support and patience! Keep checking this website for updates!
Regards,
Dan Wilson
