George, Washington's
Community Center
The George Community Hall is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and it exists for the benefit and enjoyment of George, WA, residents and the Quincy Valley at large. Its purpose is to provide a place where events and social gatherings can comfortably occur; the facility is available for private rentals. The GCH is overseen by an all-volunteer Board of Directors, who also function as event directors on behalf of the City of George for the grand July 4 Celebration, CoffeeHouse Concert series, and Annual Bluegrass Festival.
The overarching mission of the George Community Hall is to educate residents and visitors alike in the fine art of 
cultural participation, not only in the broad sense as Americans, but more specifically, as those who identify themselves with the inclusive, rural-agricultural, ethnically diverse economy here in Central Washington State. It is our intention to encourage everyone in our area to be active, positive participants in all aspects of the life of this community.
We are operating with the recognition that interdependent human flourishing does not happen in a vacuum, nor does it happen by accident or artificial contrivance. The flourishing and growth of human beings most readily happens in the context of community.
Consequently, our organization places a very high value on volunteerism and on the promotion and encouragement of creative cultural enrichment; we aim for the outcome of a tangible sense of continuity of traditional small-town community life. We are happy when we hear residents say, "I like this town!" and when young people who have grown up here return to enjoy our events and activities.
Our motto - "If you believe that something is impossible, please do not interfere with those who are doing it!"

New Paragraph
The George, Washington GEORGETTES
Although the Georgettes, technically, are a sub-committee of the George Community Hall organization, they really function as a SISTER organization, doing a multitude of things such as food service, beautification management, and some event oversight. They work to support the events and activities sponsored by the George Community Hall.
Most of all, Georgettes are a great group of friends who enjoy getting together and serving our community!

Georgettes are actively involved in making the George community a nicer place to live, first by providing food management services needed for GCH events, such as helping provide refreshments for the monthly CoffeeHouse concert series, and also by organizing George Beautification/Landscaping efforts in our town. We do our own fund-raising, and we support other organizations' special projects as well.
And, of course, the Fourth of July is the Georgettes' day to shine! That terrific giant cherry pie? WE DO THAT!
Our big pie (8' X 8') has been officially recognized by Guinness World Records as the World's LARGEST Cherry Pie.
