THANK YOU for your partnership with
SOCO Beach Project...
we have a permanent home!
We are so thankful to God's grace and the generosity of his people that we have a permanent home in Port Dover. We were able to purchase is February 2023. Immediately a team of volunteers came in and did some amazing renovations on the first floor. Thus, we were able to host our first summer cohort there in May 2023. Then the following year, with more volunteer work and donations, we were able to complete the basement, where Willemina (Executive Director) and Kelly live. They moved in April 2024 and live there year round.
It has been a delight to be a permanent part of Port Dover with this home. We look forward to growing positive relationships with our neighbours. We want to add to the common good of this community and the thriving of Norfolk County.
And in our search for a property, this site checked all our boxes.
- within walking distance of downtown
- within easy lake access
- enough space for 6-7 participants
- a separate on-site living space for the Executive Director (Kelly & me)
- large common gathering space
- enough bathrooms
- a spacious kitchen
- good parking (for additional cars)
- lots of outdoor space - 450 ft depth that backs onto a ravine
