 Message from the President
It is that time of year when the days are
shorter, the weather is wet and cold,
and life continues at Sunset Community
Centre. Plans are made months in
advance for each season, and the finishing
touches are just being done to the Winter
2012 Program Brochure that you are now reading.
If you have been to the Sunset Community Centre lately, you
will have noticed the new lobby furniture that our Association
purchased recently. It is custom made, sturdy, comfortable,
easy-to-clean and a blends well with the ‘Here and There’ hangings on the wall.
Another new addition is the History Wall, just inside our front
doors. Here you can watch a video and listen to some of the
history of our two Sunset Community Centres and how they
came about – from Bing Crosby and Stan Thomas and our
original location to Walter Schultz and our new facility on
Main Street.
Over the past year, our Association has been planning a
visioning session so we can determine a new Strategic
Plan for the short and long term. In the New Year, look for
information in our newsletter and at the centre on how you
can be involved in this important initiative and help shape our
community’s future.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank our excellent staff
and group of volunteers for their dedication and hard work.
Our program seasons seem to blend together seamlessly,
with virtually no down time between program sessions. I would
also like to welcome our new Centre Programmer, Michele
Rideout, to our Sunset “family”. Things will surely be “business
as usual” now that she has settled in.
I recommend that you browse through this Winter brochure
and find something that interests you and maybe another
family member or friend. It might be Zumba, a cooking class,
a child’s birthday party, ice skating lessons, or a visit to our
fitness centre. Our fitness center is open to people over 16
years of age and only costs $3.75 for drop in. Be sure to visit
one or all of our 3 facilities – Sunset Community Centre, Ice
Rink, and Moberly Arts and Cultural Centre – you will be
glad you did.
Respectively submitted,
Karl Gulbransen
Sunset Community Association President
