New Membership Portal
There is a new online membership portal at www.cliffbungalowmission.com. It has more capabilities than the previous system and it will require less volunteer time to manage.
To get to the location online, click on ‘Get Involved’. Then click on ‘Memberships’. The new membership portal link is at the bottom of that page.
Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting was held on Wednesday, November 19. At the time of writing, it is before the AGM so we cannot report on what happened until the January newsletter. However, our AGMs are always great as we celebrate our accomplishments and the people who help make them happen. We thank everyone who helped during the last year.
Ongoing Community Events
We have ongoing jazz and potlucks in the community centre. Jazz is normally the first Wednesday of the month. There is a different jazz group each month. It is an affordable night out and the jazz groups are very good.
The attendance at our jazz events has been very good. We suggest you come early, enjoy a beverage, and get a good seat.
The attendance at our potlucks has increased. The December potluck is on Sunday, December 7 and the January potluck is on Sunday, January 11. This is a great way to meet and get to know others. There is always lots of great food.
We have a new person taking over the Social Director role so there may be some new events starting in 2026.
Changes To Our Hall Rentals
Our community hall was created from two classrooms. There is a folding door that can divide the hall back into two rooms. For many years the Montessori School of Calgary has been renting our hall space and using the west half as a classroom on school days. We have concurrently been renting the whole hall after 5:00 pm. In most cases that has meant the school would remove their things (on wheels). This has caused various concerns for the school. Over several months, we had discussions with Montessori on how we might address these concerns.
At our June 2025 board meeting, our board decided we would stop renting the whole hall to outside groups starting September 1. We will still use the whole hall for CBMCA events such as Jazz and Potlucks. We will still rent out the east hall for small events like Condo AGMs.

History Book Is a Great Gift
We have the third printing of our award-winning history book. It is one of the most successful community books in Calgary. It is available for purchase at all our events at the community centre. Cost is still $30 (cost recovery). This is a great way of learning the history of the community in which you live. They are great as gifts.
