Practices started this week and the schedule is to begin the first week of June with games to be played Tuesday evening, and Saturday mornings. + ++ There was sufficient registration for two minor softball teams this summer and a short schedule will be prepared. Goderich Township recreation representative Doug Yeo said it would likely be possible to arrange games for these two softball teams with township teams rather have the same two teams play against each other for a season. + ++ Bill Kirky, recreation board member, brought up the matter of washrooms for use during ball games at Agriculture Park. There are no washrooms there since the grandstand was taken down but the committee decided to ask. Dirk Wolterbeek to open a dressing room door at the arena during ball nights. + ++ The Recreation Board will look into an elevator lift to the auditorium at the arena for handicapped use. The cost of the project is estimated at $18,000 but would be completely financed by Wintario through a special grant. +++ The Community Centre sub -committee proposed moving the arena manager's office from the main floor to the board room on the second floor. The move would allow expansion of the canteen serving area and storage area.
