The Fines Creek Community Center houses the largest enclosed spaces available for community use.  The gym contains over 6500 square feet of open floor space with six 600 square foot classrooms on the sides.  On the north side is a small, raised, indoor stage.  Behind this stage is the large outdoor stage that overlooks a concrete pad which is used as a dance floor during the annual Bluegrass Jam.

     The kitchen/cafeteria is located behind the main brick building.  The cafeteria space can easily seat 100 people.  The kitchen retains the former heated serving units used during school days.  Within the kitchen are a stove, refrigerator, freezer, ovens, sink and other components used for serving meals to large groups.

     The kitchen received the designation of a USDA level one commercial kitchen.  This designation allows an individual to make certain products for resale in the kitchen.  A kitchen manager handles the oversight of kitchen use, since the level one designation requires specific procedures to be followed.

     The facilities are available for community use.  A small fee is charged to cover utilities and insurance.  See Attached Fee Schedule.
