The acquisition of a community hall has been long overdue and cannot be overemphasized.

• Among its many benefits, the association will save money in the long run, if SLAA has its own hall and stops paying rental fees each time we have a meeting or some other function for which SLAA requires the use of a hall.
• The Hall Acquisition Committee, chaired by former SLAA President Augustine Marah, is planning a Casino Fundraising Drive to raise a substantial amount which will be set aside as seed money for the proposed infrastructural investment.
• Meanwhile, the association has for the first time secured an office space at The Clareview Multicultural Centre, to run its secretariat.
