Thank You for an Amazing Stampede Breakfast!A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for the CECA x Millrise Second Annual Stampede Breakfast! We were thrilled to see such an incredible turnout and so many families and neighbours enjoying a morning of great food, fun, and community spirit.
This event was made possible through the generous support of our sponsors: Pur & Simple, Cloud Dental, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen – Eversyde, Servus Credit Union, MLA Eric Bouchard, Oishii Sushi, Kenko Sushi, and Asian Buffet. Your support helped make this event a tremendous success.
A special thank you also goes to our dedicated volunteers and CECA Board Members whose hard work, time, and commitment brought this event to life. We truly appreciate everything you do for our community.

A Weekend of Dedication: Celebrating Our Amazing Volunteers
This past weekend was a true testament to the spirit of community and the power of volunteerism.
A special shoutout goes to Kevin and Doug, two of our long-time, dedicated volunteers, who rolled up their sleeves and got to work on an important repair project. They carefully removed the damaged siding from the shed, replaced it with new materials, and reinstalled the remaining sections—restoring both function and appearance. Their effort ensures that our shared spaces remain safe and well-maintained for everyone to enjoy.
But the work didn’t stop there.
With the season coming to a close, the community Ice rink was also dismantled—an effort that takes time, coordination, and commitment. Thanks to the helping hands involved, this transition was smooth and efficient.
It’s volunteers like Kevin and Doug who make a lasting difference. Their dedication, reliability, and willingness to step up—year after year—are what keep our community thriving.
To both of you: thank you for your hard work and continued support. You set an inspiring example for us all.

CECA Casino Fundraising Event – A Successful Community Effort
The CECA Casino Fundraising Event, held on April 3 & 4, 2026 at Elbow River Casino, was a tremendous success. This important fundraising initiative would not have been possible without the incredible support and dedication of our community volunteers.
Over the course of the two-day event, many of our residents generously volunteered their time across multiple shifts, helping ensure the smooth operation of the casino activities. The event also provided a wonderful opportunity for residents to connect, meet fellow community members, and build new friendships.
We extend our sincere appreciation to the Advisors and casino staff for their guidance, coordination, and support throughout the event. Their assistance, combined with the enthusiasm and commitment of our volunteers, made the experience both enjoyable and well organized. CECA was also pleased to provide meals for all volunteers during the event.
The funds received from this casino fundraiser, expected later this year, will play a significant role in supporting and enhancing CECA’s existing programs, events, and future community initiatives for our residents.
On behalf of CECA, thank you once again to every volunteer who contributed their time and effort to make this event a success. We truly appreciate your continued support and look forward to our next casino fundraising event, anticipated in the first quarter of 2028.
