• Linkwood Community Center Closed – Jun 30, 2025 - Until Further Notice.

  Linkwood Community Center: Due to inadequate cooling from the temporary air conditioning units currently in place, Linkwood Community Center is unable to maintain a safe and comfortable indoor environment.

  Platou Community Center
  11655 Chimney Rock Rd.

  (Approximately 3.4 miles from Linkwood)
