Representing the area bordered by Strasburg Rd., Block Line Rd., Homer Watson Blvd., Ottawa St. Meetings held at Alpine<br />

Public School. Contact person: Graham Jeffery, Secretary. Email: gwjeffrey@rogers.com<br />

Our yearly events and activities include the April community clean up, family oriented events at the Country Hills Community<br />

Center, our neighbourhood newsletter, and addressing neighbourhood concerns as they arise.<br />

We are always looking <strong>for</strong> volunteers, but we are also very interested in “participants”. Join us at a meeting, get to know us<br />

and what we do. Or come out to an event that we put on or a Country Hills Recreation Association event that we help make<br />

happen. You might find a role <strong>for</strong> yourself in our organization, or not. It’s up to you. And we try to have fun.<br />

We do have some guiding principles that we take seriously. The Alpine Community Neighbourhood Association (ACNA) has<br />

a mission to foster pride in the neighbourhood and to maintain a safe and environmentally friendly community; to encourage<br />

resident participation; to provide a <strong>for</strong>um <strong>for</strong> problem solving <strong>for</strong> community issues; to preserve and enhance the quality of life in<br />

the Alpine community; and to be a voice <strong>for</strong> neighbourhood interests.<br />

Check our blog page at alpine-cna.blogspot.ca <strong>for</strong> more in<strong>for</strong>mation. We look <strong>for</strong>ward to seeing you soon.<br />

Auditorium Neighbourhood Association<br />

auditoriumna.org auditoriumna@gmail.com /Auditoriumneighbourhoodkitchener<br />

The Auditorium Neighbourhood Association (ANA) is bounded by Krug, Weber, Ottawa and the expressway. With over 1000<br />

households in the ANA, it is one of the oldest and most well established neighbourhoods in Kitchener. It is lucky to have<br />

majestic tree cover, great parks, two schools and of course, the namesake Auditorium, home of the Kitchener Rangers.<br />

The ANA is a member of the Downtown Neighbourhood Alliance (DNA) with access to the Downtown Community Centre on<br />

Weber street. We also have access to the Stanley Park Community Centre and the facilities at the Auditorium.<br />

The ANA is dedicated to offering <strong>program</strong>s and activities to all members of the community. The activities range from one-time<br />

yearly events to more regularly scheduled and anticipated events.<br />

Recent events have included:<br />

• Waddlefest (usually held in June)<br />

• The 2015 celebration of the 100 year anniversary of the neighbourhood - which included the inauguration of the new Pavilion!<br />

• The annual Fall musical Porch Party<br />

• HoodKicks soccer <strong>program</strong> <strong>for</strong> over 100 kids each spring<br />

• Running Club<br />

• Family Day skating in February<br />

Are you interested to know what the ANA is up to in the future? Keep in touch with the ANA. Like our Facebook page or watch<br />

<strong>for</strong> announcements on our webpage at AUDITORIUMNA.ORG. The website is filled with great in<strong>for</strong>mation including a history<br />

section and links to social media. And of course, join our email distribution list by contacting auditoriumna@gmail.com<br />

Another great way to keep in touch with upcoming events and activities is to watch the (new) ANA bulletin board in the park at<br />

the corner of Stirling and East. There is lots of fun stuff planned <strong>for</strong> 2017 -> keep your eyes open and be ready!!<br />

The ANA has an annual open general board meeting. Please come out! There are occasional open meetings from the board<br />

and ongoing committees. Watch our Facebook page, website and emails <strong>for</strong> details.<br />

Like all great volunteer driven organizations, the ANA is only as great as the vision provided by the active members! Do you<br />

have an idea of an activity that would be an addition to the neighbourhood? Then join up and become actively involved. We<br />

need YOU!<br />
