Laurier Heights Building Society, guided by its mission to enhance our community's well-being, has played a pivotal role in funding various projects that have helped transform Laurier Heights into a vibrant and welcoming neighbourhood. Here are some of the significant initiatives that have received LHBS support:

1. New Laurier Hall & Tennis Courts: LHBS proudly contributed to the creation of the New Laurier Hall, a dynamic community space that hosts a myriad of events and activities. This modern facility serves as a hub for gatherings, meetings, and celebrations, bringing residents closer together. The tennis courts were completed as part of the capital campaign development for the new hall.

2. Gazebo Park: LHBS recognizes the importance of green spaces within our community and invested in the development and maintenance of the beautiful Gazebo Park. This serene oasis, situated on land leased through LHBS & LHCL efforts, offers a tranquil escape and a perfect setting for leisurely strolls and outdoor gatherings.

3. Heritage Hall Upgrades: LHBS has been instrumental in preserving the history and charm of the Heritage Hall. Through their funding, this original community landmark has undergone essential renovations, ensuring it remains a cornerstone of Laurier Heights for generations to come.

4. Rink Shack Improvements: In our winter city, LHBS has supported the improvement of the Rink Shack. These enhancements have made it a more comfortable and inviting place for families to gather and enjoy ice skating and hockey during the long winter months.

5. Pickleball Court Development: Responding to the growing interest in pickleball, LHBS invested in the development of dedicated pickleball courts. This initiative has not only provided a new recreational option but also fostered a sense of community and active living.

Through its unwavering commitment and support, the Laurier Heights Building Society (LHBS) has left an indelible mark on our neighbourhood. These projects reflect LHBS's dedication to enhancing Laurier Heights' quality of life, promoting community engagement, and creating spaces where residents can come together to enjoy the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere that defines our community.
