Priddis Community – Dec 2023

Hello Priddis,

Maybe not everyone is excited for winter’s arrival, but we do know that our hockey players are very excited about the season and are eagerly awaiting our rink flood!

The PCA and its Executive Director are continually planning and executing amazing programs and events. Here is what is coming up in the next couple of months:

Santa Photos
Santa and Mrs. Claus are coming back to town on December 3rd! We are pleased to be hosting this fun photo opportunity for a 4th year in a row. Avoid waiting in line and book your visit with Santa right here in Priddis. Each slot is 5 minutes long and allows you to take as many pictures as you would like. Tickets are $25 for PCA Members and $30 for Non Members. Don’t wait too long as this event always sells out.

Pay for your spot by purchasing a ticket through our website. After payment has been received, you will receive an email containing the link to sign up for a time slot. pca.getcommunal.com/parent_programs/303

Community Memberships
It is time to renew your membership! Memberships are valid from Nov 1- Oct 31 each year. Memberships help us to be able to maintain our community’s much loved facilities including the hall, playground, skating rink, library and tennis/pickleball courts. They also allow us to put on events such as the Stampede Breakfast, Fall Supper and Winterfest. Being a Priddis Community Member comes with benefits such as discounted tickets to our events and major discounts on hall rentals (after being a member for 2+ consecutive years). Memberships can be purchased through our website. https://pca.getcommunal.com/memberships

Indoor Pickleball
The court is lined and the net is up. Join us for some indoor pickleball fun. Whether you are new or a seasoned player, there is space for everyone. You can sign up for a spot through the link below. signupgenius.com/go/60B0C4AABA72BA1FC1-44869971-pcaindoor

Community Skating Rink
As Winter draws closer, we always get a lot of questions about when the rink will be ready and what the schedule will be. Our ice crew is monitoring the weather and will start the initial flood as soon as it is consistently cold enough to do so. Please be sure to abide by all posted signs and stay off of the rink until it is opened for skating. Going on the ice before it is ready, even if it looks ready, can cause damage to the base layer and delay the opening of the rink. Before the rink opens we will post the public skating schedule on our website.

2023 Annual General Meeting
This year’s AGM will take place at the hall on December 14th at 7:30pm. Please send an email to priddispresident@gmail.com if you plan to attend. Your registration will ensure that you receive our AGM package in advance.

Board of Directors
We are still in need of a more permanent treasurer. You do not need to have an accounting background to volunteer for this position. Please reach out to priddispresident@gmail.com for more information.

On a more personal note, if at all possible, donations made to the bottle/can bins should go inside the bin. It is best to have them in smaller bags for ease of deposit. Leaving your donations beside the bin has led to theft, and also the dumping of household garbage. Thank you for your assistance in keeping our community clean.

Take care, everyone!
