“It is a very busy job. I thought I had busy jobs before - managing H&J’s was pretty full on. But there is also so much fun and give back in this one as well."
Yes it is a magnificent facility and well done Jo on keeping it to the fore in Invercargill As to "new opportunities" to garner more people using the area, what about a curling rink/skating rink as during the day, I can assure you support would be there for curling. Ice hockey can also be catered for if a rink such as at Alexandra was created somewhere.
The people of Invercargill are lucky to have such a facility in our city. It is world class and we constantly get feedback from people from out of town who come down to events saying just wow you are so lucky.
The one thing I would like to a small room put aside where retired sports enthusiasts can be rostered to be based and be ready to show visitors around when they arrive for a look. Wouldn't cost much apart from some tea and coffee and they could be our local sports ambassadors. Get people out of the house and make use of the huge amounts of knowledge these people have and can share. Just do it between the hours of 10 and 3 and once people know I am sure many visitors to Invercargill would jump at the opportunity to see the stadium along with an experienced guide.
It certainly is a credit to some great people that we have this complex and we need to show it off with pride
