A Message from our Executive Director

We are off to a very promising start for programming and events this fall at Bow Cliff. It is so gratifying to see our facility full of members enjoying our 20+ weekly programs. In fact, recently on a Tuesday we had over 80 members and guests participating in 7 different programs.

Our membership has grown over 15% from last year. With an expanded program offering and increased number of participants, we are working as best as we can to transition our facility between programs. The transition is sometimes challenging in September and early October as we don’t have access to the other side. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we welcome everyone to our diverse program offering.

We have a few fundraising activities in October for your consideration.

•       We have a thanksgiving raffle that will be held at our thanksgiving luncheon on October 16^th. 1^st prize is a $200 Walmart Gift Card, 2^nd prize is a $50 Walmart Gift card and the 3^rd prize is 4 breakfast plates at the Grey Eagle resort. Tickets are $2.
•       The annual Hilda Townsend Memorial Bridge Tournament will be held on Saturday, October 19^th.
•      Our first ever Bow Cliff 50+ excursion is the “Countryside of the Emerald Isle” trip to Ireland which is scheduled for May 1 to May 10, 2025. We are partnering up with Collette and Omega National Travel for this guided tour. Our spots are reserved until October 26^th.
•       Please contact the office for more details of this exciting trip, the raffle and the bridge tournament.

With our physical capacity and financial constraints, we rely heavily on our volunteers to help prepare and serve incredible lunches; organize bingo, bridge and other card games; lead walking and cycling clubs and help the office out (especially on Monday’s). We can never thank our volunteers enough for everything they do to make Bow Cliff such a special club.

Thank you for supporting Bow Cliff! Have a great fall!
