To all HWCA members who submitted your responses in the recent summer survey – a big thank you for your time and expression of opinions in this important project. The response rate was amazing with 98 completed surveys, making that well over one-third of all HWCA members who took the time to answer questions on clubhouse and property improvements. This level of interest in our community is truly amazing.
Results are now being analyzed and valuable information has already been noted to help the association be more meaningful to members. Many mentions were made of these positive attributes of the clubhouse:
o The clubhouse is an excellent gathering place to meet neighbours, make new friends, and enjoy socializing with fellow members.
o Events held at the clubhouse make us feel part of the community, and give us
a sense of belonging.
o HWCA and its events gives members a sense of connection with the neighbourhood in getting to know new people, and be up-to-date on news.
Among the comments for improvement include:
o Tennis court surface repair, adding a defibrillator, upgrading the playground.
o Organizing movie nights, cultural dinner parties, and other cultural events.
o Work harder to include all members -new and former, in the social circles to
feel part of what’s happening.
Being part of HWCA also means that any member can volunteer to help with association work, and support Board members in the many interesting projects. Please consider to sit in on Board meetings – held every third Monday of each month at 10 a.m., and voice your opinions directly at these gatherings. Consider volunteering to help with the many tasks. And, consider joining the Board in the future and have a direct impact on association developments.
Stay tuned as we analyze all results. We will be sharing with you more information, and we will share decisions to be made on these results.
With much appreciation for your opinions,
Halyna Doherty
President
