Reports Jeannette Whynot joined us from the Municipality and is the Accessibility
coordinator. She explained to the board that the Federal Gov't was going to be giving the
Community Centre $100,000 of Accessibility Upgrades. She explained what the plan was
and that when the final plans come in, we will be able as a group to go over them and make
sure they fit the needs of our growing community centre. This project will be done by
December 2025. Clarington is also required to put in 20% towards this project, making that
$20,000
Chair —Yearly recap- 2023 brought back what used to be normal to the community. Slowly
we started offering more events, and this year we were happy to announce some big
changes coming to our community centre. We were able to share in the cost of new AC
units that are dual purpose. The Municipality allowed us to get some new toilets so that we
could start updating our washrooms. It was announced by the Municipality that we will be
getting grading done around the building, which will also help with no more flooding. We
are very excited to announce that we will begetting fully accessibility washrooms, which
will allow us to offer rental space to people with all abilities. Movie nights are back and are
offered once a month. 30 + dances, we offered a few at the beginning of 2023. But with the
lack of volunteers, we had to make the decision to cancel the dances. Pub Night in 2023
featured local breweries, wineries, Krumbs Breadry and The Doozies. The night was a big
success, and we will be hosting many more. Fire and Ice, was a nice turn out and we hope
that the weather will cooperate with us more in the future. Breakfast with Santa was a huge
success. Everyone left full of pancakes, local maple products and lots of family activities
to be done. This event is a free event put on by the Community Centre. Thankyou to the
Trillium Commitee for giving us the grants for some much -needed sanitizing stations,
tables and more. Our outdoor public rink was once again allowed for the community to
use. In 2024 it is our hope to get our small community centre back to all the events that we
offered prior to the covid lock down. We would like to thank the team of people we have
running this building. Also, a personal Thank you to Joy Vaneyk, for her countless years and
hours that she has given to the community centre. Joy has decided to step back from the
community centre and really enjoy her retirement.
Co -Chair
Maintenance — Kyle- Fire extinguishers are all good. All tags are still 2023 but will
investigate contacting them for updated one. The Battery on the defibrillator is good, the
set of pads are good till 2025. Rotting window frame, the steel cage outside the building,
and more issues in the basement. We have 2 sump pumps in both basements, neither of
them has battery backups. We need to acknowledge this so that it will also help with future
floods and when the power is out. In the south basement there is discard valve is leaking
water and has slim mould. Grease trap, has it been looked at in a while? It looks like it had
Leaked down the wall. It should be brought to Clarington's attention.
