MEMBER’S STATEMENT ON KAKISA COMMUNITY HALL GRAND OPENING
Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. Today I have some great news to share about the community of Kakisa. After more than five years, with special planning and construction, Kakisa is ready to host the grand opening of their new community hall.
The new hall is built alongside the old Deh Cho Assembly arbour. It was a bustling hub of community activity year round, ready to host sports and games, feasts and other community gatherings, with space left for storage and meetings.
The old community hall quickly filled to capacity, but the new hall will have more than enough room for all residents, family and friends.
I know the residents of Kakisa have been eager to have a place to gather. When Rowe’s Construction completed the last of their work, the community will have a place. The opening has been discussed for October 1st, but I’ve been told this has been rescheduled possibly for mid-October to make sure everyone in the community can attend.
Mr. Speaker, I want to congratulate the community on the dedication to the project and in their achievement and hope for many exciting events at the new community hall in the years to come. Mahsi cho.
Thank you, Mr. Nadli. Member for Tu Nedhe, Mr. Beaulieu.
