The board passed a motion to have the Agriculture Building Washroom Committee disbanded because their mandate had been completed and .a letter of apprecia- tion be sent to all members of the committee. A motion was also passed to al- low two staff members, Cam Ste- wardson and .Keith Bowen attend training sessions at the University of Guelph -at an estimated cost. of 5900. If Bowen could not attend an • other would go. The courses would be on Multi -Facility Management and Department of Labor Refrigera- tion and that costs be assigned to staffdevelopment budget. At the Facilities- Committee meeting. the" maintenance budget was reviewed, and it was recom- mended that the Building item be revised to S45,000 down S36,000 - because it was originally thought the roof would need major repairs and' it later decided to do only mirror repairs instead. The board agreed. - The Committee passed a list of - priorities for building maintenance -and renovation. The first was the enclosure of the press box, the sec- ._ and was- the= arena boards, then doors in the arena boards, followed by automatically controlled louvers and finally the arena roof. .At_ the. meeting, Dave. Urlin re- ported that the Exeter Works De- partment plans to add one or two street lights at the. Victoria Street parking lot entrance of the Rec Centre, depending upon budget ap- proval. Facilities Committee chair- ' Ina Jim Chaprnan noted the one presently there doesn't seem to be doing a good enough job. _ The Committee was in favor of installing a protective netting at the south end of thearena but added it should observe things over the next few weeks to determine size and best location before making a rec- - ommendation. The committee also reported -that engineers are continuing {vork on the steel cladding program. Mem- bers.werc assured that plans and- paper work are on track in the weather. Rec Director Lynne Farquhar also presented a swimming pool report at the meeting. The most important thing she felt needed improving at the pool was the replacement of the diving board. The present board is 25 years old and the surface has deteriorated over the last few years. The board agreed and passed a resolution approving the purchase of the new board: Farquhar also said she recom- mcnded the purchase of tot docks, allowing adults to work with small children in the water who are under the minimum height of the pool, rather than carrying them around. A number of special days are planned at the pool this year as well. A Cool Dude Day will be held July 13. A Water Polo Clinic will be held July 19, a swim meet is scheduled for July 26 and a mid- - night swim is planned August 4. Last year all special events were well remixed especially the mid- night swim which surprisingly drew 100 swimmers. The General Government Com- mittee recommcnded that Farquhar make an application to Challenge 89 program for a Senior Games -Co- ordinator.- The regional- senior games are planned for this area for the summer. Programs at the Rec Centre were also under review and Farquhar re- ported that only Kindergym will be dropped from the curriculum next year because of de lining enroll- ment, but she had also considered dropping first aid and C:P.R. cours- es. - During board member reports, Mike Soldan felt the Rec Centre should do more to promote the use of its meeting rooms. He felt other arenas in the area were doing well with it and the SHRC should do more to advertise itself. Most mem- bers agreed and board chairman Pat Down thought it should be brought up at the next General'Govemment Committee meeting.
