At the meeting there was discussion regarding the merits of the Hall of Fame Selection Committee becoming a Committee of Council and the report was referred back to Community Services Staff for a further report. 2.0 DISCUSSION 2.1 In April 2003, Council approved the appointment of the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame Steering Committee, with the mandate to develop a Sports Hall of Fame which would acknowledge the outstanding athletic achievements of local residents. The committee was also charged with the task of developing selection criteria, nomination procedures, recognition process and a governance model which would be appropriate to our community while ensuring the success and longevity of the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame (CSD-06-03). 2.2 The Clarington Sports Hall of Fame Steering Committee has contributed considerable effort to develop selection criteria, nomination procedures and a recognition event which would become a highlight for the local sporting community. Through their efforts, the Sports Hall of Fame has a firmly established foundation on which to build and a program template to ensure the consistent delivery of a quality event into the future. 2.3 When the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame was in its infancy, the initial thoughts of the Steering Committee were that in time, the committee would evolve into a Board of Directors with a governance model and operate at arms length from the Municipality. As time progressed, staff felt there may be a more effective way of achieving the desired result of recognizing excellence in the local sporting community and is recommending the establishment of a selection committee which would be responsible for selecting inductees annually from the nominations received. Since the inception of the Hall of Fame the Steering Committee has been fulfilling the role of the Selection Committee. 2.4 Under the proposed format the Selection Committee would be a committee of Council and would be governed by a Terms of Reference (Attachment #1) which is consistent will all other committees of Council. The Selection Committee would provide an avenue for input from members of the community who have an appreciation and knowledge of the Clarington sporting community. 3.0 CONCLUSION 3.1 Staff would like to acknowledge and thank the members of the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame Steering Committee, Mrs. Gail Preston, Mr. Brad Kelly, Mr. Ray Bester, Mr. Bill Humber and the late Mr. Seth Hunt, for their commitment in establishing the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame as an excellent vehicle to acknowledge the outstanding athletic achievements of our local residents. Through their efforts, a strong foundation and wonderful traditions have been established which should ensure its success well into the future.

The committee was also charged with the task of developing selection criteria, nomination procedures, a recognition process and a governance model which would be appropriate to our community while ensuring the success and longevity of the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame (CSD-06-03). 1.2 The Steering Committee included Mrs. Gail Preston, Mr. Brad Kelly, Mr. Ray Bester, Mr. Bill Humber and the late Mr. Seth Hunt, all prominent members of the local sporting community, and a representative of the Community Services Department. The committee focus in the first year was the development of appropriate selection criteria and nomination process to ensure that membership in the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame was an honour that the community would hold in high esteem. The committee also felt very strongly that the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony should be a quality event that acknowledged and celebrated the inductees in a manner that would provide them with lasting memories. 1.3 The steering committee worked diligently to achieve this goal and on the evening of October 25th 2003, 350 guests witnessed the induction of the first 10 members into the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame in the categories of Athlete, Team and Builder. Since then, the Hall of Fame has grown to become a significant weekend event, including Hall of Fame Alumni events, which is a highlight for the local sporting community. 2.0 COMMENTS 2.1 The Steering Committee contributed significant time and effort to defining a mandate, articulating selection criteria and nominating process (Attachment #1) and developing an appropriate format to celebrate the athletic achievements of our Iccal residents. Committee members felt very strongly that they wanted to ensure that the philosophy and values of the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame were firmly established and that there was a solid foundation for the program. The committee members are confident that this has been achieved. 2.2 With these items firmly in place, the details of coordinating the Hall of Fame Weekend, such as invitations, catering, guest speakers and set up, are now a staff function. The primary roles remaining for the committee are the review of nominations and the selection of the annual inductees. The committee also plays a role in hosting the Sports Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. 2.3 At this time staff is recommending that the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame Selection Committee be established. The committee would be responsible for reviewing the nominations for induction into the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame and would be the final determining body for selection of inductees into the Hall of REPORT NO.: CSD-006-09 PAGE 3 Fame. The Committee would also have a role in assisting with the hosting of the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and other Hall of Fame Weekend events. 2.4 The Committee would consist of five (5) community representatives and one (1) representative from the Community Services Department. 2.5 Community committee members would be appointed for a three (3) year term with the exception of the initial Selection Committee. The initial Committee would have two (2) members of the present Steering Committee appointed for a two (2) year term. All future appointments would be for a three (3) year term with the option of serving a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms. This would allow for consistent turn over of the committee and ensure that there is suitable experience and continuity on the Committee at all times. 2.6 In the event a member of the committee cannot complete their term, their replacement will assume the same term on the committee as the person they replaced (i.e. regardless of what year they assume a position on the committee their term will be considered to be that of the member they are replacing). 2.7 Vacancies on the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame Selection Committee will be advertised through local media outlets and applications for vacancies shall be submitted to the Community Services Department and appointed by a committee of department senior staff. Appointments will consider the current make-up of the committee and attempt to ensure a balance of geographical representation, (must be a Clarington resident) and diverse community and sport knowledge. 2.8 Former members of the Selection Committee may re-apply to the committee after one (1) full year of absence. 2.9 The Members shall serve without remuneration and shall not receive directly or indirectly any profits or benefits from their position as members of the Selection Committee. 2.10 The representative of the Community Services Department shall chair all meetings of the committee. At the first meeting of each calendar year, a secretary shall be appointed from the committee, for a one (1) year term. 3.0 CONCLUSION 3.1 Staff would like to thank the members of the Steering Committee for their commitment in establishing the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame as an excellent vehicle to acknowledge the outstanding athletic achievements of our local residents. Through their efforts, a strong foundation and wonderful traditions are in place to ensure the successful future of the Clarington Sports Hall of Fame.
