While the major renovations at Bellrock Hall have been completed for some time now, there are still things to be done and plans in the works. So, with the bands After The News and Crimson River set to rock out the stage, a fundraiser barbecue was in order last Sunday.
“There’s always ongoing maintenance and repair,” said chair Sarah Robideaux. “We’re going to paint starting this week (and) there’s a drop ceiling under discussion.
“And we’re looking at roll-out chair racks which were planned after the last renovation started.”
And then they have ideas about the park behind the hall.
“It needs some TLC, as does the old play structure,” she said. “But it helps to have a contractor on hand.”
And they’ve also been looking at some kind of awning which would help towards holding more summer events outside, she said.
For such a small community, the Bellrock Hall tends to be a fairly busy place with yoga, sword training, the VON and euchre on a regular basis.
“We’re staying open all winter,” Robideaux said. “We’re going to start monthly pot lucks on Oct. 13 and there’s a concert/silent auction Dec. 10 and a gospel concert scheduled for Februrary.
“The plan is to have one nice thing each month.”
