Chair Jacobs asked about the ballroom -the size, the stage, and the acoustics. Ken <br />Redfoot said that they are designing a ballroom for the Central Orange Senior Center in that the <br />name "ballroom" had an appeal to it and the seniors wanted it. There will be a stage 18" high <br />that would have complete access with steps and an elevator lift. It can be used for speakers, <br />programming, and other small theatrical events. Also, in the case of a wedding, a band could <br />set up on the stage. This roam seats about 204 people and is subdivided by a movable wall. It <br />has a nice view of the pond to the south and easy access to the porch area. The ceiling will be <br />acoustical the and would have the proper acoustics. <br />Commissioner Halkiotis said that the committee asked about a wheelchair lift ramp and <br />possibly avoiding a mechanical lift to save some money. <br />Commissioner Gordon asked if they had considered adding more senior space without <br />deleting Sportsplex space and also about the casts. Ken Redfoat said that John Stack would <br />be addressing some of these issues in his presentation. <br />John Stock made a PawerPoint presentation. <br />Triangle <br />SportsPlex <br />Current Status <br />Special Events <br />Projected Growth <br />Financial Results To May 31, 2006 <br />Orange County SportsPlex <br />Results December 16, 2005 -May 31, 2006 {table) <br />Accomplishments to Date <br />^ New Management Structure <br />- Hired Mark Hamlett as new Director of Ice Rink Operation and Hockey <br />^ Ice Rink Compressors <br />- Rebuilt and Auto Sensor Installed <br />New Cardio Equipment <br />Added healthy food in the SnackPlex <br />Commencement of Locker Room renovation <br />- New Locker Banks <br />- New Flooring <br />- New Paint Scheme <br />Special Events <br />December 16, 2005 <br />Through <br />June 1, 2006 <br />Nutcracker on Ice <br />^ December 17, 2005 <br />^ 600 Participants and Spectators <br />^ Revenues $2400 <br />
