Spring is here! Birds are chirping, the sun is
shining and all is deemed wonderful in our cozy community.
Thank you to all who helped save water during
the repairs and upgrades to the existing water systems last month. Though we
may still feel some turbulence this year, the city is working very hard to
implement our new water infrastructure, on course to be completed by year’s
end.
For our centre, we’re looking very much
‘outwards’ this term. We’re focusing on events and programs which get you more
engaged with us! Our committees are working feverishly to get grant funding,
upgraded infrastructure within and outside our centre. We have plans where
we’re hosting more events than ever for the community and our friends.
Stay tuned for ‘teasers’ leading up to our
signature summer event – our Great Big Family Picnic (GBFP) on August 15.
That’s when we host a music festival, with children’s activities, food and
drink and celebrate summer!
To tease the community and generate some
excitement around that, look to the next few months to engage with us. You’ll
be invited to come down, meet board members who are working for you, hang out
on a picnic blanket and enjoy the sun with good people and the fantastic mood
of it all. Of course these teasers don’t have any cost – simply bring your
favourite foods if you like, friends and plenty of smiles.
With our new term for this year, we’re always
looking for volunteers – whether it be the GBFP, helping around the facility,
working with board members on some committees to make us greater – much
opportunity in a very friendly, productive and rewarding environment.
Contact [email protected] if you and/or
a group of your peers want to help out. We have a very exciting year ahead and
by pulling together, we’ll make it the best, most brilliant year at the MCA.
Thank you, see you at the teasers and enjoy your spring!
