Memories of Jug Brown Recreation Center sought
as demolition of iconic structure nears

The M.N. (Jug) Brown Center has been a place where memories have been made for the past 63 years.
With the demolition of the iconic structure set to take place soon, Enterprise Parks and Recreation Director Billy Powell is hoping that the thousands of people whose lives have been entwined with the life of the iconic building will share some of their memories.
The building is being torn down this year to make way for a new modernized building with the ability to meet more current recreational needs.
“We are really excited about a new Rec Center and all of the recreation improvements that are planned for the coming months; but at the same time, this is emotional for all of us who have an attachment to this building,” Powell said.
Anyone who would like to share their positive experiences and fond memories through the written word, are asked to email Kay Kirkland at [email protected] through March 31. If you’d like to include a photo or photos, feel free to do so, but please identify the activity and any people in the photo if possible. Please also attach your name, telephone number and email address.
A decommissioning ceremony is being planned for the building. The date will be announced later as plans for the demolition are finalized.

Mayor William E. Cooper asks everyone to join him and the City of Enterprise workforce in a moment of silence at 1:10 p.m. Tuesday, March 1, in remembrance of the nine victims and all others who continue to live with the consequences of the devastating March 1, 2007 tornado.

Tuesday marks the 15th anniversary of the most tragic event in modern Enterprise history. As the storm packing 170-plus mph winds cut a 10-mile path through the city and beyond, destroying Enterprise High School, Hillcrest Elementary School and 248 homes, it took the lives of elderly resident Edna Strickland and EHS students Michael Bowen, Peter Dunn III, Andrew Jackson, Ryan Mohler, Katie Strunk, Michael Tompkins, Jamie Vidensek and Michelle Wilson.

“We will never forget the devastation and grief of that day,” Cooper said. “And we won’t forget the courage and dedication of so many who helped in the long recovery process. We are thankful for what we have overcome to rebuild and renew our community, but we also recognize that we will never fully recover, because we will always mourn the loss of the nine precious lives lost that day.”

The Mayor has asked all city employees, where possible, to pause for a moment at the approximate time when the tornado struck Enterprise to honor the lives lost and to pray for their families and all whose homes and businesses were destroyed or damaged, and all others who suffered and continue to suffer.

The devastating storm destroyed 248 homes, damaged another 379 so severely they were uninhabitable and damaged or affected another 787. More than 120 people throughout the city were injured. Damage was estimated at $330 million.
“I hope the public will join me and our Enterprise family today to pause and reflect, and to pray that we never again experience such a harrowing and sorrowful event in our city,” Cooper said.
