Romsey Recreation Centre
A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER
We hope you all had a great start to the year, and everyone has settled back into school and work.
We have unfortunately had some set backs with the mezzanine upgrade. Firstly, we say farewell to the Traynor’s who were a driving force in the gymnasium development for Romsey. We wish them all the best in their new enterprise, they will certainly be missed. Secondly, it appears the works required to modify the mezzanine are more complicated then originally hoped. We still have interested parties looking into the development, and Council will continue to work with them to determine whether a favourable outcome can be reached.
We have some repairs taking place at the centre over the next 6 months. The toilets and change rooms will get a minor facelift, with some painting and repairs. This should brighten up the space considerably. We’ve also had new carpet laid upstairs, and repairs made to the squash court floor.
We would like to welcome two new casual staff members to the Romsey Recreation Centre. Jon Perez and Ashley Petran join the team this year. We know their enthusiasm and sports knowledge will be a great asset to the centre.
We are looking forward to a great second half of the year. If anyone has any suggestions or issues please contact me to discuss. We are here to provide programs for your community and we welcome your input.
