VIRTUAL OPEN HOUSE
Missed the open house? Watch the recording
Aypa hosted three community open houses this summer: two in person at the Carolyn Owens Community Center on August 20 and 27, and one online on September 12. The virtual open house was recorded so anyone who could not attend can watch it here.
Recorded Saturday, September 12, 2026. About 18 minutes.
