Spring Fashion Show!

BACK AT THE BHCC

Wednesday May 20th, 2026

Ladies….back by popular demand, the Spring Fashion Show with clothing and fashion by Barb’s Clothes Closet.

It’s been 7 years since our last sold out event and we want to give you all plenty of notice to “save the date”.

Wednesday, May 20^th, 2026 doors open at 11:30 am  —  Fashion Show and lunch from noon to 3 pm.

In anticipation of this highly attended event, we are putting a call out to our residents to ask the following:

• Any females wishing to model the clothing for the event (and attend a “try on” date about the week before at the store) please send your intent of interest via email to bhcc@rogers.com with the subject Fashion Show. We need approximately 10 in total. No experience required – it is a fun event.
• Any males owning their own tuxedo or formal wear, who might wish to escort our ladies on our runway. We need 3 or 4. Please indicate your interest by emailing the centre at bhcc@rogers.com. Males will only be required the day of the event.

Let’s make this a spectacular sold out event again. Save the date and stay tuned for more exciting details.

Activity Fees and Supporter Cards waived

for the

Fiscal Year November 1st, 2025 to October 31st, 2026

The Operating Fund for BHCC was nearly depleted by the time the Community Centre was allowed to re-open after the COVID Pandemic. To assist in the recovery and continue to offer programs and events, residents were asked to contribute $1.00 per activity attended or purchase an annual Supporter Card for $60.00.

There are now sufficient funds in the Operating account to sustain the Centre for the next fiscal year. The Board of Directors voted unanimously to defer collection of Activity Fees for this coming year. This is a deferral only. We are cautiously optimistic that revenue generated from the concert series, social events, yard sale, golf league contributions, and other contributing events will sustain operations for the immediate future without the need to collect Activity Fees. A decision will be made next October, 2025. If revenues are sufficient and operations are adequately funded, the fees will continue to be waived. If not, the Activity Fees will be reinstated.

The Board of Directors thanks all of the residents who understood the need and cooperated in paying the fees.  A special thank you goes to the Activity Coordinators who collected the fees. Your efforts are appreciated.

We look forward to your continued participation in the many events and activities offered for your enjoyment at the Briar Hill Community Centre.

Sincerely,

Your Board of Directors,

BRIAR HILL COMMUNITY CENTRE
