Hello from Douglas Park Community Association!
DOUGLAS PARK COMMUNITY CENTRE
It has been a busy Fall season at Douglas Park Community Centre. Some of
the highlights include: the now annual Open House where we showcase
the best the centre has to offer, a big milestone celebrating the Wednesday
Social Club’s 50th anniversary, as well as the Halloween for Kids event.
This Fall saw continued investment in key programs. For children and
youth we have expanded afterschool care and increased enrolment in the
RALLY and young leadership programs. We are pleased to welcome Lorelei
Lauten, Recreation Programmer II from Hillcrest CC. She will be focused on
helping us expand our seniors programs and older adult programs. Check
out the large number of new programs we are adding to the Winter 2016
program. The pottery studio is also growing, and we are hosting a pottery
show and sale in the Spring, It will be a great opportunity for students to
sell their amazing creations and the community to take home a unique
piece of art.
The Playground Committee has kicked off. We have started fundraising for
the additional funds needed to make the new Douglas Park playground as
amazing as our existing one. Throughout the upcoming year, we will be
updating with designs and funding events for the community. If you wish
to get involved or discuss sponsorship opportunities, please contact the
centre. We look forward to working with the community.
Thank you to all the volunteers, board members and staff who continue
to make Douglas Park Community Centre the heart of such a great neighbourhood.

introductory program to leadership will work on language to use when
talking with others, body posture, and how to help guide the conversation.
