President’s Message. . .
Spring is a time of rejuvenation and that is certainly true in the case of FCCC this year. There are lots of
things on the go at the centre right now. You’ve probably noticed that the long promised renewal of the
Preschool playground is underway. The project should be completed by the beginning of May. Apologies
for any inconvenience arising from construction but the play area was in serious need of an upgrade and
expansion.
In addition to the playground, a modular extension will be installed soon on the Alder Bay dock, which
should ease some of the congestion there this summer.
In person
at the Centre
starting at 9:00am
A False Creek Community Centre Open House is also in the works. The all-day event will be held
Sunday August 30. There will be program demonstrations, information on programming and services
available at the centre, the opportunity to provide feedback and suggestions to the staff and the Board of
Directors, and much, much more. This event is still in the planning stages so stay tuned for more information
both on the website and posted around the centre.

Did you know that babies understand and
can communicate long before they are able
to speak? Using songs and games, learn
basic American Sign Language (ASL), hand
gestures to facilitate communication with
your hearing child. Increase understanding
of your child’s needs and wants, alleviating
much unneeded frustration. Research
shows that babies who learn Sign Language
learn quicker and talk earlier. Bring your
baby to class. Sleeping babies welcome.

person or another dog, be accepting of grooming or handling, sit
and down on command and walk on a loose leash. Classes will
