Hello folks,
Just a wee update on our hall rental schedule. Please see our calendar below for booked dates and vacancies.
For more information please visit our “Rent Out Hall” page.
For anyone interested in finding out more about the newly built intersection between Sunnybrae Canoe Point Road and Highway 1, please join Greg Kyllo on Monday 18th July at 2:30pm, at the Sunnybrae Community Hall.
After a member of the Rollier family asked us on facebook about the history of the SCA’s properties, some of our newer board members felt inspired to have a look into our records. Here is what we found!
We thought sharing this information with the community would be a great way to remember and appreciate the history of where these properties began, as well as to remember the work and generosity of the people who once lived in this area.
We hope you enjoy 🙂
The property around which the Sunnybrae Hall stands used to be a 3 acre lot. It was sold to the Sunnybrae Community Association by Dorin Rollier on March 18th 1954 for the sum of $75.00. At the time this land included the lake shoreline but was later separated and donated to the province to be developed into a park. It was further passed onto the CSRD who now operate the property as a public park.
The balance of the original title is currently owned by the SCA as of the date of our recorded history (April 27th 2007) and holds the Sunnybrae Community Hall as well as the Sunnybrae Seniors Hall.
On February 25th 1916, the crown granted the title of the Badger Road Property to the Sunnybrae School District. On June 29th 1953, the title was then granted over to The Board of School Trustees of School District No. 20 (Salmon Arm).
The school was built from logs by Charlie and George Mobley in 1912. The first school teacher, Ruth Wilcox, who lived where the Raven Subdivision stands today, used to row her boat across the lake everyday in the summer!
The school closed in 1949, where the children were moved to Tappen School for 6 months before transferring to the Carlin School upon its completion; Easter 1951.
The school district donated the property to the SCA and as of the date of our recorded history, own the property.(April 27th 2007).
Another successful community event!
The Sunnybrae Community Association would like to extend a big, warm thank you to all involved – volunteers, donations, attendees! We truly appreciate your generosity.
Special thanks to Eila Power, Edith Rizzi, Karen Haines and Golden Ears Farm for their wonderful plant donations, and to all the volunteers who put their time in for setup/take down, organizing donations the evening before and running the barbecue for lunch.
Oh, and congratulations to Diane Jewell who won the Indoor Begonia & Gladys Houde who took home the the Hanging Basket!
This year we raised $827.29! This is going toward both our Raise the Roof fund and general maintenance/overheads account so we can keep the hall in good shape for all our wonderful renters.
This brings our Raise the Roof fund to a grand total of $11,012.98!!
Our next project at the hall is a re-wax and polish of the hall floors, which is most certainly due! So thank you again and we hope everyone is enjoying the season!
Our 2016 rental slots are filling up! If you would like to rent the hall please visit our Booking & Rentals page for more information. The hall is a great place for wedding receptions, family get togethers or just a spontaneous event to enjoy a day in a paradise!
Here’s a quick glance of current vacancies. Purple indicates dates already booked this year!
Coming up this Saturday… it’s the 2nd last coffeehouse of the season! All are welcome to join us with our good friends, and feature act: Blu & Kelly Hopkins. Entry is $3 at the doors, performing musicians get in free! As always: 3 songs, or 10 minutes!
Chilli & a bun for $5 will also be served at the Seniors Hall, 530-730!
See you there!
On Saturday 2nd April the community got their dancing shoes on and hit the Sunnybrae Hall dance floor in style!
The Salmon Armenian’s most excellent Rhythm & Blues sets carried plentiful smiles, laughter and groovy moves throughout the night. All in attendance enjoyed home made goodies, wine & cheese plates and a prize draw full of contributions from local community members & businesses.
A huge thank you to everyone involved. The volunteers, the band, the supporting businesses and all the community members who turned up to enjoy the evening. What a great way for us all to support each other in this community!
Special Thanks to:
On Sunday March 20th, members of the Seniors Hall, the Sunnybrae Community Association and surrounding residents got together to give the Sunnybrae roadside a spring clean. The litter picked up amounted to 38 bags! A great (if not unfortunate) way for the whole community to get together and take care of our environment.
A big thanks to all the volunteers for their hard work and community support!
