Canadian Lakes Gifts and Memorials Committee BY KEN SWATHWOOD
A
s a private, recreational community, Canadian Lakes is unique in its vision and the array of amenities offered to property owners. While the development and maintenance of the community has been, and continues to be, carefully planned and managed by the Canadian Lakes Property Owners Corporation (CLPOC), the community also receives generous support through donations from members. One example of such support was the Beach Rejuvenation Project completed last year. On behalf of the Reuther Memorial fund, the Gifts and Memorials Committee donated a memorial gift of $5,625 that was designated for use in maintaining our beaches, helping to pay for the beaches project.

THE CANADIAN LAKER
The Gifts and Memorials Committee was chartered on September 9, 1995, to provide a depository for funds given by members of the CLPOC in honor of a person, or for funds given for a designated (or undesignated) purpose, and to disburse these funds in a manner suitable for memorials needed by the Corporation. Over the past 27 years since being formed, the committee has received funds in memory of members, and have used these funds to purchase various items for use by members within the Canadian Lakes community. Pictured below is a new flagpole purchased with funds given in memory of Ken Stack and Zoah Bengel. The flagpole is located behind the sign at the corner of 7-mile Road and Clubhouse Drive West.
