Spring Fashion Show!

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.

30+ Vendors, BARGAINS GALORE!

As in the past, we will have spaces to rent for those owners wishing to display and sell their own Good/Used Items or Crafts. Dates for renting spaces will be some time in mid to late May. Keep an eye on eNEWS for those dates and times.

What if you don’t want to have a table yourself? Not to worry – there will be a Donations Sale table(s) for those items you wish to donate. Proceeds from the Donations Table will go directly to the Operating Fund of our Community Centre.

So, get started on your Spring Cleaning and set aside any items that are still in good working condition. No clothing is accepted. All acceptable donations can be dropped off in the East Room on Friday, June 20th between 9 am and 12 noon.

Of course, this Yard Sale will only be successful with the support of our volunteers. If you can volunteer your time the weekend of June 20th to June 22nd, please e-mail:

Vicki McAloney – vicki_mcaloney@yahoo.ca or

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
