LUNCH WITH SANTA 2013
This year's Lunch with Santa was a huge success!
Big thanks go out to Donna and Wendy for organizing the event and for all the volunteers who helped to make it such a great time for all who attended. Check out our Facebook page to see more pictures!
OUTDOOR RINKS
Outdoor rinks are up and running at both sites. The Glenlee site building is open weekdays from 4:30-10 pm and weekends from 9-5 pm. The Norberry site building is open each day from 9-9 pm. Happy outdoor skating everyone!
Please note that on days when the windchill is extremely high, the WJSF at the Glenlee site will be closed and the lights turned out.
PARENT/COACH INFORMATION
Every year, our Volunteer coaches run into parents that are not satisfied with how their child is being coached. Here is a document that all parents (and coaches too) should read to remind themselves to keep things in perspective. Happy reading!
NEW PROGRAM AT NGCC - MINI VOLLEYBALL
Together with the Winnipeg Minor Volleyball Association, NGCC is trying to promote a new program to the area for children 7-12 years of age. They are split into 2 groups - one for grades 2-4 and one for grades 5-6. Games are played in the gym at NGCC Sunday afternoons.
The program runs from October to March and the registration fees are $195.00. If you choose to just participate from now until December, the cost is $120.00. For more information, check them out at www.wmva.ca .
PICKLEBALL INFORMATION
Pickleball will continue throughout the winter months on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons from 12-3 pm in the gym. Players can either pay a $3 drop-in fee or fill out a quarterly membership and bring the form and the money by the office.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED AT NGCC
After our AGM on April 15th, the following spots remained open. Some of the positions are Board positions, and some are convenor positions that do not require attendance at meetings. PLEASE consider taking on one of these open spots to help our community centre continue to grow and maintain it's programming.
Hall Rentals Director - this is a Board position that oversees all the rentals at NGCC.
Equipment Director - this is a Board position that oversees all the different sport equipment convenors and helps them with inventory and budgeting.
Softball/Baseball Equipment Director - this person is responsible for distributing and collecting all of our softball and baseball teams with required equipment.
More information on what this position entails is located here.
Volunteering for one of these positions not only fulfills your volunteer committment for the entire year and gives you a free booster card, but it allows you to get involved and make a difference in YOUR community. Parents that show children the importance of getting involved create that same spirit within them, and that in itself is very satisfying.
If you need more information, please contact the office at n.g.c.c@mts.net or Sean Fedorowich at president@norberry-glenlee.ca .
