Newly constructed Newcomb Community Center

A highly anticipated debut.

The Town of Newcomb began constructing the multi-purpose community center in 2024, after being delayed due to the COVID pandemic. According to Newcomb Town Supervisor Robin Deloria, the building’s completion will enhance the community while introducing travelers to attractions and amenities in the central Adirondack region.

“This is a very long-awaited day,” he said. “I have no doubt that the building will quickly become the center of local and regional activity in Newcomb, hosting many of our important activities and organizations. I’m encouraging everyone to stop by and celebrate with us on Memorial Day weekend.”

A full day of events honoring those who served our country and celebrating the new addition to the Town of Newcomb.
