๐ทOff Season Work Complete!
Posted on August 22, 2024
A number of (mostly grant-funded) projects were completed over the summer, including these noteworthy items:
Installation of new acoustic ceiling tiles in lounge.
Installation of a state-of-the art camera system on all sheets:
Four 4K cameras per sheet, with optical zoom capability, fed to sheet TV's.
Each sheet's cameras are also linked to a NVR, providing recording and playback capabilities.
Camera feeds can be viewed via phone apps or on the big TV.
Camera feeds can be live streamed over the internet!
Liquor storage room has been insulated.
A huge thank you once again to Wes Meger for doing the lion's share of the work on all of these projects.ย Thanks also to Paul McKay for assisting with the camera installation, as well as to all the volunteers who came out to help at various times.

We have so many wonderful supporters from our local community, and today we give thanks to Nelson & District Credit Union for their generous financial support through their Community Investment Program. Last year they gave our facility a big boost by helping us purchase a POS system, and this year they are supporting the completion of our recent major lounge renovation.
You are a true community champion, and we are lucky to have you!
