DUBUQUE YOUTH SOCIALIZATION CENTER
DUBUQUE YOUTH SOCIALIZATION CENTER. Opened on April 15, 1973 in the building which once housed CORNERSTONE at 197 Jones, the Center was the idea of Cornerstone officials Mike Brooks and Sue Huehergarth. They formed DYS, Inc., a non-profit corporation to establish the Center which would serve as a place for young people to time without spending a lot of money. The building was donated by MULGREW OIL COMPANY for a six-month trial basis. A volunteer staff had been organized.
The Center was to be open Thursday and Friday from 6:00 p.m. to midnight and noon to midnight Saturday and Sunday.
