Bragg Creek Centre
Happy 2021 Creekers!
As I write this, the latest round of restrictions under the Public Health Orders are currently in place and we hope that when you read this letter, we have been able to limit the spread of COVID-19. Our greatest wish for our community is that you were all able to find some Christmas Spirit, joy and gratitude over the holiday season and stay healthy and well during such a difficult time for all of us.
The BCCA’s Rink Committee have been hard at work repairing our rink and getting it ready to flood so that we will have a community ice for the New Year. During this time, the Rink Committee are running two fundraisers to help with the costs of the rink: rink board advertising and a Wine Survivor raffle. If you are interested in either fundraiser, please contact braggcreekrink@gmail.com and the committee would be happy to sell you a raffle ticket (or three!) and advertising space in the rink.
While we are not currently able to offer our regular programs at the Centre we are looking forward to when we will be able to run programs and events again for our community. Our Internet Co-workspace is currently closed due to the latest restrictions however, we believe that we will be able to reopen to our community members. A reminder, rates are $25/day, $75/week and $250/month for a desk and a reliable internet connection. Thanks to the Ladies Auxiliary we offer a subsidized rate of $5/day for students. Call 403-949- 4277 or email info@braggcreekca.com for more information.
The Community Centre is the hub of the community, and while we haven’t been able to ‘host’ our community in some time now, we continue to operate and do our best to plan for when we can re-open and provide programming for you and your families. The Centre is still operating with minimal revenues and we encourage everyone to renew or purchase a membership if you haven’t recently or consider a donation to the Centre. Every little bit helps us continue serving you.
Finally, we want to share what WE are grateful for. You, our community and especially our awesome community volunteers who have given of their time over the 2020 year. We honestly would not have been able to maintain and run any events or programs without our staff and the volunteers who help us.
Take good care Creekers!

Program and Event Manager
