A Message from Connie Rusynyk

We would like to thank the community for your support throughout 2023! We have accomplished a lot and could not have done it without each and every one of you! As we move into 2024, we will also be looking at new ways to continue bringing the community together with the support of our volunteers, committee members, and all those who continue to make ACC the very special organization that the community has enjoyed for the last fifty years!
