   KEEP  CHECKING  YOUR  MAIL  BOX  FOR  INFORMATION  /  FLIER  ABOUT THE  LOCAL SWIMMING POOL -  THIS IS A DIRECT  MAILER  SEEKING  LOCAL   DONATIONS  - WHICH  WILL COVER THE COST OF  THE POOL   STAFF,   INSURANCE,   MAINTENANCE,    CHEMICALS,  THE   SHADE CANOPIES,   ETC.    PLEASE  BE  GENEROUS.   I  USE THE  POOL  ALL THE  TIME.    IT  IS FREE  TO THE  PUBLIC.   Paso Robles  Centennial Park  pool had to be closed all last summer because the  CITY  could not raise the funds to keep it open !  Here in Creston, the local residents always come through to help us keep the pool open to everyone.  The tradition continues. For more info about the history of our beloved local pool, check out the other pages on this site.

  The Internet provides a place for all of the Creston residents to voice their opinion about the long-awaited Community Center, which is now about to become a reality. PLEASE  check out webmaster Mike Barrett's site for your input, plus all the latest information about the process of designing and implementing a plan to build  our  COMMUNITY  CENTER.  Did you know that the Rodeo was created in 1995 by Nancy Ryan and Rosie Hebron  (and a few others) as a vehicle to raise funds to build the community center?   Did you know that when the first  Rodeo/ CATCH  Fund meeting was announced around town,  over 130 local residents attended that first meeting, and that  27 locals ran to become board members and that the board consisted of  9  members at that time???   The   "CATCH  fund" was created  to hold the funds raised in a trust.  Check out  the web site with all the info  at:
