Dear Crossroads Community Members,
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that the basketball court at Cornerstone Youth Centre has been removed.
It goes without saying that this is a heavy loss for our community and for the youth living in it. The court meant so much to many. It was more than just a basketball court, it was a place where our youth gathered, friendships were built, laughter was shared, and meaningful connections were formed. For years, it has been a space filled with energy, joy, and community spirit.
On behalf of Cornerstone Youth Centre we would also like to offer a huge thank you to the over 200 community members who signed our petition to keep the court. It warmed our hearts to see the number of neighbours who took the time out of their days to make their voices heard and support our cause.
We know that this news is difficult, and we understand that many of you will have questions. For more information, we kindly ask that you refer to the following link: https://www.crossroads-communitychurch.org/post/statement-regarding-basketball-court. You may also contact Crossroads Community Church. Their phone number is (403)-276-1263 and they have a contact submissions box on their website.
However, even in moments like these, we remain hopeful. The team at Cornerstone Youth Centre is committed to coming back stronger. We are already thinking about new ways to continue creating opportunities for joy, connection, and physical activity for the youth and families we serve.
If you would like to support us during this time, we kindly encourage you to consider donating. Your support will help us reimagine and rebuild spaces and programs that continue to bring enjoyment and engagement to our community.
Thank you for your understanding, your support, and for being part of what makes Cornerstone so special. ❤️
