Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the Crofton Regional Community Center, Inc. (CRCC)?

The CRCC Inc. is a private, not-for-profit corporation established to raise funds for the construction and operation of a community center in the Crofton area. This center will serve residents of the greater Crofton area by providing class rooms, meeting rooms, after school activities, and other services.

Where and when will the CRCC be built?

The CRCC will be built on land leased from Anne Arundel County. This property is located in Crofton on Reidel Road between the Crofton Public Library and the Crofton Cares facility. The CRCC, Inc. recently signed a 20-year lease with the County Executive, subject to the approval of the Anne Arundle County Council. We anticipate approval by the Council by the end of August, 2009.
Construction of the center will depend on the fund raising activities of the CRCC Inc. We will be raising approximately $7 million for construction and $3 million for operations support. Support from community groups, including Kiwanis, Rotary and the Greater Crofton Chamber of Commerce have helped this foundation get started. The CRCC Inc will work with other organizations, local businesses and schools, and interested citizens to achieve our goal.

Based on our projections, we anticipate start of construction will take place sometime in 2010 with a grand opening planned for 2011. Your help will keep us on this timeline and help this community effort succeed.
