Join us at the Brookside Rinks on Family Day (Feb. 19): Enjoy skating, outdoor activities, hot chocolate and cookies with neighbours and friends
What a difference from a year ago! Our restored Brookside Hall is bustling, once again able to house programs and community rentals. We have welcomed churches, karate programming, Peanut Butter & Jam Playgroup, Girl Guides, Sparks and Pathfinders, and the hall has hosted birthday parties, other celebrations and our very own Community League Day!
Please join us at the Brookside Rinks on Family Day for Family Skate Fest: skating, outdoor activities, hot chocolate and cookies with neighbours and friends! The event is weather-dependent, so check out riverbendonline.ca for updated details and follow us on Facebook for league updates!
The Riverbend Community Centre in Rhatigan Ridge is looking great with an updated kitchen and flooring in the main hall. Our rentals team has been busy with rental requests, and we welcome your inquiries.
We are looking for community-minded people who want to help out with social events and programs at the RCL. If you’re a planner, have great ideas, or prefer boots-on-the-ground helping out, please reach out to us and offer to volunteer. If you’re looking to meet people in the neighbourhood, we have program opportunities available as well. Take a yoga class, join our group of gardeners in Brander Gardens or Brookside, try out Dungeons & Dragons (if you’re 12-19 years old), or come out to one of our events and meet new friends and neighbours.
If you’re seeking experience with a board and like to have an ear to the ground of what is happening in your community, volunteer as a neighbourhood ambassador from Brander Gardens, Brookside, Ramsay Heights or Rhatigan Ridge. These ambassadors represent the RCL at the Terwillegar Riverbend Advisory Council and are voting members on the RCL Board.
RCL is always looking for volunteers to deliver the Riverbend Ragg-Times and to drop a few copies of our newspaper off at neighbourhood businesses. Such a minimal but much-appreciated time commitment is a great way to support the league and helps you get a few steps in as well! Please reach out to info@riverbendonline.ca if you can help in these or other roles.
Thank you to Nancy Wendt, Gina Thede and Deann Stein-Hasinoff, elected along with myself as officers of the RCL Board of Directors at November’s AGM. Thank you to outgoing treasurer, Haley Sutherland, for all your contributions in 2023. We wish you the very best in your future endeavours.
Please support your Community League by purchasing a membership, volunteering and participating in our programs! Advertise your business in the Riverbend Ragg-Times and check out our hall rental opportunities at riverbendonline.ca!
