We want to recognize and sincerely thank Josh Verch for 11 years of dedicated service to this community. For over a decade, Josh has given countless volunteer hours, leadership, problem-solving, and care to help keep this centre running.

We would also like to congratulate and thank the following individuals for accepting positions on the Board:

A huge thank you as well to every person who came out tonight to share ideas, ask questions, offer support, volunteer their time, and commit to helping move this centre forward.
There was honest conversation, important discussion, and a shared understanding that keeping community spaces alive takes people willing to show up and tonight, people showed up.
As we move into this next chapter, we are still actively looking for volunteers and leads in several important areas, including:
β Bar Chair / Bar Manager

Whether you can volunteer regularly, help at events, share ideas, or simply lend a hand where needed, there is a place for you here.
This centre belongs to the community, and its future will be built by the people willing to invest in it together.
