Happy New Year –
We hope you enjoy our updated guide for the many programs and services at Kitsilano Community Centre. Since July, We have been very busy working with the other community centres in Vancouver, and with the Vancouver Park Board to reach agreement on a new Joint Operating Agreement (JOA). The JOA is a contract between the Park Board and our Community Centre Association which sets out the terms and conditions for the joint operation of Kits CC. We hope to have a new contract in place by April 1, 2017. Stay tuned for opportunities to learn more about this at our AGM on April 20th.
We are eager to collaborate with the Park Board on a number of building enhancements over the coming year. Your Association Board of Directors is anxious to proceed with improvements to the Main Lobby, Snowy’s Lounge and the outdoor Spray Park. All proposed developments must be approved by the Park Board, and we are told there is a considerable backlog of projects for them to consider and evaluate. We look forward to updating you with the progress of these important projects.
A redesign of kitscc.com is nearing completion. By early 2017, kitscc.com will have a new look, and be an easy to use platform, highlighting and promoting the unique and community focused programs here at the Centre.
We welcome your comments, suggestions and participation in our programs.
Welcome to Winter!
