PHARR — Pharr city officials held a Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting ceremony in celebration of renovations to the Jose "Pepe" Salinas Recreation Center on June 11, 2020.
The Civic Center, which was opened in 1970, has been a staple in Pharr for over 50 years. During its long history, the center has served the Pharr community in various capacities including as a recreation center, rental facility, polling site, and more—always providing a space for families and the community to gather together.
"I am proud of the new modern renovations made at the Jose "Pepe" Salinas Recreation Center," said Mayor Ambrosio Hernandez,
