Hall News
Recently we wrote about our success in obtaining 3 grants from the Onkaparinga Council as part of their recent round. One of the grants was for the extension and upgrade of our storage facility at the rear of the hall. The current storage was made from some second hand corrugated iron, and it was small, inadequate and leaked badly.
While it served its purpose at the time, we now need to store 10 tables on a mobile trolley, 2 large round tables, 3 table tennis tables, 2 barbeques, a floor scrubber, as well as a host of other items such as cleaning materials and equipment. We had simply run out of space! We also needed to ensure nothing was rain damaged, which required relocation of equipment during inclement weather.
We have lodged a Development Application with the Council, and hope this fairly simple work can be approved quickly so that we can proceed. Council staff have been very helpful and supportive.
In the meantime we have relocated some items and proceeded to pull down the old storage facility. Here are some photos of the demolition work, undertaken of course by our volunteer committee members. We hope to obtain approval soon, and look forward to a larger, better protected storage area in the not too distant future. We will keep you informed of the progress.
