Happy New Year Priddis!
We would like to begin this month’s community update with some thank yous. Over the last month a crew of dedicated volunteers, led by Steve and Doug, spent dozens of hours finishing the interior of our new garage and change room and building a beautiful deck with benches for people to put their skates on. We are so thankful for all of the time they spent on this amazing project. Secondly, we would like to thank the hard working ice crew who spent many long, cold and late nights at the rink over the holidays making sure that the ice was ready for the community to enjoy. Lastly, we would like to send our heartfelt thanks to some outgoing members of the PCA Board. Our treasurer, Leah Tenove, and Vice President, Jessie Boyle, have dedicated many hours to our community over the last few years. We are grateful for their commitment and wish them well.
Last night, at this month’s board meeting, we welcomed three new executives to the team. We can look forward to Melodie Lalonde’s leadership as President, Patrica Feuchter supporting as Vice President, and Susan Penner looking after the financial side of things as Treasurer. Welcome to the team!
Skating Rink:
The rink is open and it was great to see how many people came out to enjoy it over the holidays. Please keep in mind that you must be a PCA Member to use the rink. It is also mandatory that all users wear helmets while on the rink. Please be respectful of other users, use the bins provided for garbage and recycling and leave the ice when asked to do so by the ice maintenance crew.
