THE CRYSLER COMMUNITY
CENTRE
The Crysler Community Centre is a self-supporting service in Crysler. It receives
an annual grant of $7,500.00 per year from the Township of North Stormont. The rest of the monies required to pay bills
and services must be raised by the Centre itself. The grant from the Township does not go far when you consider
the cost of heat, hydro, repairs, licenses, snowplowing, lawn cutting, maintaining the park and ball diamond, cleaning and
ongoing maintenance of the building. The Community Centre is also responsible for the heat and hydro of the Library,
with the help from a small grant from the Library Board.
Through fund-raising activities like weekly bingo, hall rentals, dances, Winter Carnival, Annual golf Tournament, DAMFest,
and monthly kids dances, the Community Centre is able to keep its doors open. But a committee of 9 individuals with jobs and families can’t do it all. That is why volunteers
from the community are so appreciated! If you have a few hours to spare each month to help chaperone a kids dance, water/clean
the ice rink, help out at bingo, at one of our special events or if you would like to organize a community event, please let
us know!
