At the Annual Meeting, the membership voted to lease the space adjacent to Ring 2 (behind the red double doors). With this extra room, the club now has an additional ring, as well as space for offices and storage.

After analyzing the results of the member and staff surveys, we are planning the classes and events that will take place in the new space. The planning committee has now determined the uses for the office areas in the new space—a business office and a consultation room for TCOTC instructors. This will also allow us to move the existing office out of the crate room, thereby increasing crating space.

Construction and design projects will begin soon! Anyone who would like to volunteer should contact Karen Radford.
