CLEVELAND, Tenn. — Taylors Ruritan Club wants to play a role in the creation of a community facility and an exhibition center in eastern Bradley County.

There is a need for those facilities in the Taylor Elementary School area off of Highway 64, said Elizabeth Kalabus, chairwoman of the nonprofit Taylor Exhibition Center and vice president of Taylors Ruritan Club.

Fundraising efforts soon will be under way for the proposed community center, which is the first part of a three-phase project, she said.

“We have a lot of big plans and need financial support to make it reality,” Kalabus said.

The community center, projected to cost between $250,000 and $300,000, will be located on a 13-acre parcel on Taylors Ruritan Club property on Old Kinser Road.
