I am just back from the hall post it being used for a 5th birthday party. I could smell the sweets and felt the fast receding warmth of loads of people in the hall. It really is a pleasure to see people I don't recognise from Chiseldon in the hall and enjoying themselves. We set out to create a social hub for the village and I feel with simple events like these, that vision is turning into a reality. When we have heating available in the hall, I will be able to stop having kittens and cease worrying about it being too cold to use. So far, we have been lucky and our tactical decision to open without heating has been a good one, but one cold snap and we would have some very cold occupants!
The lady who hired the hall put tables and chairs away and swept up. She also cleaned the surfaces in the kitchen. Other than checking the place and locking up, I didnt have to do too much in my 'key holder' role... Thankfully they even took their own refuse away with them (like it says in the hire agreement).
I have just firmed up the local Police using the hall on 29/10 for a 'police meet the public' event. They currently use the Landmark hotel, so using the hall is a great, positive move.
