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.
