4. Chairman’s Report for 2021
Good evening.
Apologies for my absence tonight. We are away in the Cotswolds on a holiday that has been booked and rebooked for 3 years!
With the easing of all the regula�ons the halls are ge�ng busy again. We have lost a few of our regulars and our weekends have not been as busy as we would have liked
but we expect that to pick up again. Childrens par�es seem to be our staple for weekends.
Our caretaker manager and the assistant caretaker have been our greatest asset this year. Thank you to Paul and Stuart for everything they have been doing. Paul has taken on board all the contact with contractors when things have not gone as well as they should and has taken a lot of that work off of Teresas shoulders. Stuart has slipped into the job as if he has always been with us. A great team.
exposed the wood behind was ro�en. Contractors have already been on site to give us es�mates and the job should be done shortly.
We now hope to get on with some of the other refurbishment of Tollgate Hall that we had planned to do before Covid. We s�ll have a problem with the floor and Ann Norton has taken on the task of chasing the supplier to put the damage right.
Teresa and Ann have recently moved the sand bags that were taking up spaces in the Tollgate car park. We await the extension to the car parking as there is o�en a need for the extra spaces.
As always my sincere thanks must go to Teresa for all of the Secretarial support and Ann Norton for her enthusias�c support to the Halls.
