Bragg Creek Centre
Hello Community,
With the end of summer comes our Fall Program season and a new member to the BCCA team! Welcome to our NEW Event and Program Assistant, Shea-Lynn Yuzicapi! Shea is excited to meet the community and apply her recreation education and experience.
Thank you to all that attended our Fall Open House on Sept. 10th, it was great to see some new faces. Also, thank you to those that attended the Film Festival as all bar proceeds went directly back to the BCCA.
Fall Programs have started with a couple of new additions like Springbank Dancers & Swamp Donkey Theatre. Our Youth committee is returning and new participants are always welcome. Information on all programs can be found at www.braggcreekca.com.
The BCCA is always looking at ways to improve your experience at your Community Centre so we have a new Registration Structure for Pickleball and Badminton. It is our hope that these changes will:
- Increase commitment, so there is a consistent number of players coming out each week
- Be mindful, as a not-for-profit, that BCCA programs are contributing to equipment & facility operating expenses
- Offer more quality programming, so people don’t have to travel outside the community
- Ensure that these sports won’t get bumped for other bookings (unless an election is called – hands are a bit tied there)
Drop-in rates/Pro-rates are available, and we are open to any and all feedback! Our intention is to be inclusive of all community members, so if the new registration structure is a barrier for you to join, please let us know by emailing info@braggcreekca.com .
Save the Date for these important events:
- Federal Election Advanced Polls – October 11-14
- BCCA Concert October 12 – Aaron Pritchett
- Centre Office Closed Oct 14 – Happy Thanksgiving
- Federal Election Polls – Oct 21
The Haunted House and Halloween Event are coming up! Redwood Meadows Emergency services will be back on scene setting up a spooky haunted house. There will be activities for kids and the first Movie night of the season will be the same night!
