SATURDAY JUNE 18th – BOCCE TOURNAMENT & YOUTH FUNDRAISER
Register today for our first Bocce tournament of the year. A great way to compliment both the men’s and ladies leagues currently underway.

To register, please contact Allan Perin today at alperinhrv15@hotmail.com to register your team. Non members will be required to pay a tournament fee of $10.
Later that day, there will be a Youth Rep Team fundraiser. Tickets are $20 with proceeds going towards our youth teams. There will be live music, a great buffet and terrific raffle prizes. Doors open at 7pm.
Please contact Tommy Saic for tickets at toma.saic@sympatico.ca.
CONSTRUCTION UPDATE:
PARKING LOT, GATE & FENCE
From the results of the member survey that we conducted late last year, paving our parking lot was the #1 capital project that you wanted us, your Executive Committee, to focus on in 2016.We are happy to report that the parking lot has been paved, parking lines painted to maximize the space on our property and walkways to the bocce courts paved all in an effort to improve the experience of our members and guests at our facility.
Also, along with the new parking lot, construction on a new front gate with stone pillars containing a fence is also underway and will be completed shortly.
We hope you all enjoy the new look and feel of the Centre and please be safe on the premises, especially while the construction is still in progress.
