Report:
Aaron reported that I we have not received payment for all of the ice ads. We are sitting with less money than at the same time last year.

- Coolant was added to the ice-making plant and it is running better.
- Ron Gervais court action: after some discussion, the consensus is that the board will support whichever option is chosen by Jerry Pickett, whether to proceed or reach a settlement.
- Year-end party will be Saturday, April 3. Someone should contact Clyde to see if he is willing to continue as the meal organizer.

General Manager’s Report:
Pete mentioned that the ice is very dirty for the 5:30 Monday 2 on 2 league after the juniors are on the ice in the afternoon. We need to emphasize that all curlers no go out on the ice with street shoes.

New Business:

• There were comments that it gets very warm upstairs during bonspiels and there was a suggestion to bring in a large fan for those occasions.
