Hello to the Sunset
Community, from
your
Association
Board of Directors.
Well the excitement
of our Grand
Opening is over and now we must get down to the
business of ensuring our new centre is operating as
well as we can make it. We are already seeing an
increase in the number of visits and our programmes
have expanded due to an increase in available space.
So far the new building is everything we had hoped
it would be.
Our Canada Day celebration was a huge success.
Many thanks to the staff and volunteers who
organized the event and worked hard to ensure
it would be the success we have come to expect
here at Sunset. Please check out the program
guide for some new and exciting classes we have
for this season.
I would like to extend a warm welcome to our three
new directors and look forward to working with them
over the coming year. On behalf of the Association
Board, I would like to extend an invitation to you
and your family, to visit the centre and enrol in a
program.
Ken Thompson, President, SCCA
