Gordon Memorial Arena Like a concerned shopper trying to keep the food bill down councillors reviewed and revised an original list of needed equipment prepared by recreation director Doug As a result of their spendthrift perusal the coun cillors were able to whittle the amount needed to outfit the new Guclph Street arena from to just over However there are still a number of pieces of equipment that will likely have to be placed back on the list as the need or them is proven during the arenas shakedown period Councillors also expressed the opinion that they were hopeful that community
