On September 9 All Saints Waterloo hosted its first annual Golf Tournament in support of the SideWalk Community Centre.

Running a community centre is a rewarding but challenging endeavor. It requires a combination of passion, organization, and resourcefulness to create a vibrant hub that serves the needs of the mission field. From managing various programs and activities to maintaining the physical space, there are many factors to consider when allocating limited resources.

There is essential equipment and supplies for sports, arts and crafts, and other activities. Maintenance and upkeep of the facility are essential to keep everything in good condition. And volunteer management to recruit and train help in the delivery of programs. All this requires resources.

To help fund the ongoing operations of the SideWalk Community Centre, All Saints Waterloo hosted its first annual Golf Tournament in support of this vital new ministry in North Waterloo.

Over 50 golfers and friends who joined for dinner, gathered at Foxwood Golf Course on September 9, 2024. The scramble format was followed by dinner and a silent auction. The day concluded with Anthony Lee Jr of the KW Titans professional men's Basketball team speaking to those gathered about the importance of community centres and community space for youth and the positive downstream effects community spaces have on the development of the next generation. Anthony closed his talk with some of his Christian rap, celebrating our Lord and Saviour.

The day was a great success raising significant funds for the SideWalk Community Centre. A special thank you to Rev Dan Bowyer and his entire team for organizer a great event.
