Brief Solina Hall Board meeting
Yyyyyh
We had a brief meeting to approve the opening of the Hall fo April 1, 2022.
Motion made by Karen Dair to open on April 1, 2022 with any restrictions in place to be
followed. Seconded by Chris McKenzie. Carried.
A discussion ensued re the need for presentation of Proof of Vaccination. After much
discussion it was decided that at this point we would not ask for it. This can be changed as
needed. Motion made by Kathy Baker and seconded by Chris McKenzie. Carried.
Jenny has looked into the Self Assessment signage required to open. Lee -Ann Reck has them
done and Jenny will pick them up for the Park and Hall.
Jenny has been in touch with Lee -Ann and Tim Walsh about the cleaning protocol and
supplies. Jenny, Karen, Eric and Don will follow the protocol when cleaning and Herb will pick
up the appropriate cleaning supplies. The approved cleaning supply list has been forward to
Herb.
Chris enquired if The Town was going to repair the tennis court. Janice will enquire and report
back on her findings. There was also a question re the pebble stone in the playground being
part of the problem with the tennis court. It seems to find its way into the courts.
Bev brought up the bar tender situation. Currently the renters supply their own. Previously the
Hall Board had supplied the bar tenders but this had changed a couple of years ago under the
new alcohol regulations. We prefer to supply our own as they can keep an eye on the Hall.
Janice will follow up on the current requirements of renters suppling their own bar tenders or
the Hall Board supplying them for alcohol rentals.
Hearing no more discussion Jenny called for a motion to adjourn the meeting. Don Dair.
Chairperson Report 2021 -
The hall was closed for 2021 - did open for the elections in June.
The floor had been damaged due to a sump pump leak October 2020 - It was replaced by The
Town in October.
We replaced the benches in the west lawn. The Centre Board donated one and John & Shirley
Goslinga. The benches were plaqued to represent these donations. The Centre Board donated
in memory of the Solina WI and Silver Set. Karen Dair donated her Arbour Award tree from 4H
to the Hall. It was planted by Andrew Louws.
We had a major Park clean up in September. Several years of junk moved on to the dump!!
It was decided to paint the kitchen to freshen it up. Karen and Jenny chose the colour and
Lloyd Yesik will complete the job as soon as he is able - $3000.00 to paint all cupboard inside
and out and the shelving in the island. Any repairs needed before painting were included.
