"Arenas can't break even. They're a service to the community and there's going to be a deficit. They were never meant to break even and it's getting worse and worse and worse," said Seaforth Coun. Lou Maloney. "I'm with Lou on this one," said Tuckersmith Coun. Larry McGrath. "Arenas don't run in the black. 1996 was the best year we ever had but we never broke even." But, Seaforth Coun. Joe Steffler argued that arenas should at least be expected to meet their budgets. "They've got to break even every year or pretty soon the deficit will be at $1 million," he said. Later in the discussion, however, Steffler agreed that communities need community centres for weddings, funerals and other gatherings. "We've got to pick up the deficit somehow, someway. If we lock up the community centres, we're not going to have a community anymore," he said. Brussels Coun. David Blaney suggested council needs to look at all of the services it provides "with an eye to what they can reasonably be expected to pay.""

Before 1 started snowmobiling, I learned the "rules of the road". 1t wasn't until much later that I realized another whole set of rules exists that only experience can teach. These principles aren't written down anywhere, but they're as immutable as running out of gas if you don't fill up: 1. No matter hbw smooth the trail has been. it will suddenly become bumpy after lunch. I won't have any Rolaids. 2. If there have been any signs for gas, there won't be one marking that last critical turn-off to the station. Inevitably, I will be very low on fuel when I drive by. • 3. If 1 do find the gas station, the surface around the pumps will be plowed down to the asphalt. Then I'II have to get off my sled to move the air hose that signals a car's arrival. 4. While gassing up, a car will park in front of me so 1 have to physically move my sled to leave. 5. If I backtrack on a long, unmarked stretch of trail because I haven't seen any marker for miles and am unsure if it is the right trail, the proper sign will inevitably be just around the next comer from where I fumed. 1 will discover it only after riding all the way back to the last intersection, turning around again and coming all the way back. Now 1 will really need gas. 6. I won't see any other riders all day, but at a sharp comer, I'II suddenly meet a parade of oncoming sleds. They will mostly be taking their half of the trail from the middle. 6. After a long, hard day when I most need it, the hot tub will be broken that night. It is the reason 1 booked this hotel in the first place. 7. On cold days, when I'm especially looking forward to hot soup for -lunch, the soup of the day will be a kind I don't like. Or it will be luke warm. 8. Whenever I finally decide to ask someone else where I am, that person won't have a clue about the local trails. That will make two of us. 9.. Even on the calmest day, if 1 need to consult my trail map. a high wind will start to blow. 10. I won't need to use the facilities unless there aren't any. 11. It will rain the one day that I'm not wearing my GoretexTm snowmo- bile suit. 12. I'll arrive in town by snowmobile immediately after the street 1 must follow has been ploughed. 13.

When coming to a point where the trail ahead is plowed bare, there will never be a sign saying how far the snowless section extends. Similarly, if the trail detours onto a paved road, a sign will rarely be in place that says how far I have to ride on pavement to pick it up again. 15. If there is a logging truck anywhere nearby. I will meet it, usually at the most inconvenient place. Ditto for groomers. 16. If I have to ride along the shoulder of a deserted road or highway. a large tractor trailer will appear to spray me with slush. 17. When I arrive in a town, I will be chased by a barking dog.

Or maybe it's my helmet head. 19. The guys with the hottest sleds will ride bumper to bumper at high speed. 20.

Councillors were told that despite an anticipated deficit of $28,000, the Seaforth and District Community Centres ended 2003 with a deficit of $68,000 and the board is so far budgeting for an additional deficit in 2004 of $45,931, which will add up to a total deficit of $114,478. The Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Centre will end 2003 with a deficit of $72,248 but is budgeting for a surplus of $51,404 in 2004. Vanastra Recreation Centre ended 2003 with a deficit of $25,410 but are aiming for a balanced budget in 2004. Each of the managers of the three facilities presented their initial budgets to council last Tuesday as Huron East began its 2004 budget planning. Seaforth arena manager Dale Lamont told council that while he wasn't involved in planning 2003's budget because he took on the job halfway through the year, he is looking at creating more revenue by blocking ice time, which involves sports groups paying for scheduled ice time whether they use it or not. Lamont told council that the arena lost $5,600 in revenue from cancellatipns in October, November and December last year and could make an additional $20;000 a year in revenue if groups were expected to pay for all the ice time they schedule. "1 was not aware this was going on. It's not a good way to operate a business," responded Deputy Mayor Bernie MacLellan who added that staff wages and operating costs still have to be paid whether or not a group cancels their ice time. "If you reserve a round of golf and then don't show up, you still pay. I'm not sure the arena should operate any differently," he said. Clerk -Administrator Jack McLachlan said the Seaforth arena also lost $9,000 on the Dave McLlwain hockey school, which was not held in Seaforth last year and $36,000 in snack bar revenues over the year, some of which were generated by the hockey school. Both Lamont and McLachlan said they hoped to recover arena revenues with the proposed new Junior D hockey team for Seaforth which a London, Ont. investment group is attempting to organize. While Lamont pointed to the extra ice rental revenue from a Junior D team, McLachlan said that the Junior D team might also offer a hockey camp for minor hockey players in August. MacLellan argued that last year's deficits the Seaforth arena would have been cut in half if the chiller hadn't broken down mid-season. "The municipality had a deficit last year as well. The arena was no different," he said. Tuckersmith Coun. Larry McGrath pointed out how he's been asking for a reserve fund for arenas to offset unexpected costs like the chiller breakdown. Lamont told council that "little jobs" involving maintenance of the building are adding up with the furnace in the upper hall and the tables in the hall as a few of the items needing work or replacement. "I've got a list of jobs that need to be done," he said. The deficit at the Brussels arena was caused by a $10,000 electrical upgrade, $17,000 in ice rentals that were lost during winter storms and $25,000 on the replacement of a 25 -year-old chiller that the Brussels arena board hoped to offset by a second Harley Davidson draw that was never held m 2003, said Grey Coun. Alvin McLellan. McLellan said after the Vanastra Recreation Centre's successful first motorcycle draw;;aU thr'eu'iremt boards talked -about holding a second draw, which was never organized.

Brussels arena manager Murray McArter told council that ice rental rates will be increasing from $87.50 an hour to $90 an hour and the hall rental rates raised by $50. The 2004 budget also aims to earn close to $12,000 more in liquor sales from last Oar's sales of $112,000, a goal McArter said he wasn't sure could be reached. "That's (liquor sales are) where we make most of our money," he admitted, however. McKillop Coun. Sharon McClure asked why Seaforth's arena does not have a liquor licence since Brussels is so successful at raising money with theirs. MacLellan explained that the hotels in Seaforth fought the move to licence the Seaforth arena when arena attempted to get one close to five years ago. Vanastra Recreation Centre manager Lissa Berard told council that Vanastra's 2003 deficit of $25,410 was caused by the unexpected costs of building maintenance with projects such as an energy- efficient lighting retrofit, repairs for furnance breakdowns and a fan system to replace a worn-out pool blanket. She said the recreation board in Vanastra increased its expected revenues by just one per cent because of fears of the competition from the new recreation complex in Goderich. However, Berard listed a number of plans to increase revenue and create interest at Vanastra, including increased rental fees for private birthday parties at the pool, spa days that offer massage and manicures along with use of the facility's pool and sauna, a corporate challenge for local workers to compete and raise money - and increased gooperdtion, with the TacieilmithiDay Nursery. Anticipated renovations at the rec. centre include light motion sensors for the change rooms to save hydro costs, the replacement of carpeting in the fitness room with a rubber floor, the addition of a TV and VCR in the fitness room and repairs to the pool bottom. Berard said the pool repairs could range in price from $2,000 to $60,000 depending on whether or not the cracks in the bottom result from structural damage. She said she hopes to apply for Trillium funding for pool repairs and the recreation centre's renovations.
