Allan thanked everyone for the suggestions an advised that we are in the processes of changing the bingo and in the near future instead of volunteers there will be paid positions and if any one would like to sign up there is 1 rule if you work you don’t play bingo on that night. Council is looking to have 1 crew run the bingo weekly and do it on a trail period for 3 months and then reevaluate after that. There were some general concerns about switching it this way, but for the most part they all understood that in the end this is a business and council is generally concerned in the future of the Rec Center.
