A big shout-out to the Strawberry Social team

If you didn't make it out to the Strawberry Social this year, you missed a great day at the Centre where Jacqueline and her band of volunteers served up delicious strawberry treats for 97 attendees.

The proceeds from the sale of the food and cash donations amounted to $877. This money will be used to help a Ukrainian refugee family in the local area with some of the many expenses associated with coming to Canada under exceptionally difficult circumstances.

Well done, indeed.

Rentals

The Darling White Lake Centre is available to rent for special events, meetings, family get-togethers, small commercial activities, and so on. The following facility user fee schedule applies.

Rentals

For private (i.e. not open to the public) or commercial events not requiring the use of the kitchen, the fee is $65 per calendar day (or part). The rental fee is $100 per calendar day (or part) if the kitchen facilities will be used in support of the event. For any event expecting more than 60 attendees the rental fee will be determined on a case-by-case basis. In all cases, prior approval of the Executive Committee is required for any rentals.

NOTE: If alcohol is to be served/available at the event, the renter MUST obtain a Special Occasions Permit (here) and provide a copy to the Executive Committee no later than 1 week prior to the event. Failure to do so will result in the reservation being cancelled. Both the approved Rental Application and the SOP must be posted at the Centre during the event.
