President’s Message<br />
As you know, the HPCA members voted to continue to<br />
lease our hall from the City <strong>and</strong> plan to arrange a sub-lease<br />
with another group provided we can get that all arranged by<br />
December 31 of this year.<br />
Having made this decision gives us certain rights, but<br />
it also dem<strong>and</strong>s of us certain responsibilities. Having our<br />
own community hall gives us the right to hold community<br />
events at the hall for little to no charge if we wish. Examples<br />
of these events would be dinners, family movies, Earth Day<br />
celebrations, BBQs, Music in the <strong>Park</strong>, meetings about<br />
development issues, Wine & Cheese events, etc.<br />

having our own hall include the repairs <strong>and</strong><br />
maintenance of the hall. And, because we are a nonprofi<br />

money where we can by doing many of the hall<br />
maintenance <strong>and</strong> repair tasks with volunteers from<br />
the community doing the work <strong>and</strong> sourcing the<br />
supplies to do the work.<br />
So, from time to time we will ask for your help<br />
to do various tasks or help at a Work Bee. We’d<br />
like you to commit to helping where you can, <strong>and</strong><br />
maybe you can bring a neighbour or a relative to<br />
help as well. Th e old adage of “many h<strong>and</strong>s make<br />
