BRAGG CREEK COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
Do you remember why you love it in Bragg and the first time you have memories here? Maybe you were born here and went to school in this area. Was your first time here as a visiting tourist? Do you remember the first impressions that kept you coming back and eventually deciding to stay?
Memories of people you knew that have moved away or are no longer here, and how much fun you had together are important to hold onto. Remembrance can be a pillar of strength for us.
Remember those who served and continue to serve, and why. Take strength from the past and face into the future with hope and optimism.
Remembrance Day Service – You are invited to attend:
- Monday, November 11th
- 10:30am at the Community Centre
- Outside Service (dress for the weather)
- Following the service, you are invited inside for coffee and a light lunch where miliary memorabilia will be on display.
- Open invitation to the Community to display military family photos to help share our stories.
- Please bring donated food items for the Veterans Food Bank of Alberta.
With the recent BCCA Board of Directors Annual General Meeting, held on Oct. 29th, we are excited to welcome in our new Directors and get started on a busy term. Please join us in thanking outgoing members for their dedication and contributions. You will be missed.
The Centre is looking forward to the largest community event of the year. Mark you calendar for Bragg Creek’s Spirit of Christmas:
- The Christmas Market runs for a full weekend (Nov 29 & 30 & Dec 1):
- Friday from 5:00-9:00pm
- Sat & Sun – 10:00am – 5:00pm
- Spirit of Christmas runs on Saturday and Sunday from 10am – 5pm both days (Nov 30 & Dec 1). Check the website for updates and schedules as not all activities will be available both days.
- Horse drawn wagons
- Visits with Santa
- Kids Only Store
- Face Painting
- Cardmaking
- Community Fire Pits
- Special activities hosted in and around local businesses
- Volunteers are needed! All manner of elves are welcome and very much needed to herd the reindeers, organize the festivities, hang the lights, guide the sleigh, and wrap it all up with a bow. So dust off your ears and keep an eye on the website for SignUp spots, and you will definitely make it onto the happy list.
Remember who you are, what you believe in and where you came from. Remember and be strong.
Take purposeful steps forward, seek help and take care of you and yours.
Lest We Forget.
Your Bragg Creek Community Association
