(GCS) regretfully advises that in order to meet the terms of the soon-to-expire lease (30 June 2023) the Goodwood Community Centre will close at 5 pm on 22 June 2023. With no offer to the contrary from Unley Council, GCS will vacate the centre on 30 June 2023. The place that is Wirraparingga which is a gift to GCS will journey with GCS. Those with a function booking for the weekends to 30 June 2023 will still access the centre. The effect on GCS-specific services is that:
All other groups and services will close by 22 June 2023 as there will be no access to halls and offices. A refund for the period 23 June to 30 June 2023 will be made. Goodwood Community Centre will re-open under the direct management of the Unley Council on 1 July 2023. GCS will be donating and selling equipment as of 1 June 2023. Please let the staff know if you wish to buy equipment or know of a community group that would benefit from a donation. GCS apologises for any disruption caused by any lack of equipment for the remaining program dates, but GCS has to begin immediately. If all equipment is sold/ donated belonging to a GCS program before 22 June, the program will close earlier. GCS thanks all its supporters, participants, users, members, hirers, and the community for their participation in the past seven years of direct GCS management (2016 -2023), a period of 16 years co-management with Unley Council (2000-2016) and 45 years (1987-2023) of Toy Library, Goody Gym, and Playgroup and a myriad of auspiced and grant-funded services.
