V3C 2AS

Dear Nike

Enclosed please find copies of letters received
from
the Park and Recreation
Department» as well as a letter from
Poco Saints Lacrosse Assn.»
dated Feb. 26 » 1990 outli
ques
or both Senior and Junioz
and play-off games. Also enclosed, is the'B'acrosse League
schedule of games
and play aff dates for both teams.
'
let:
letter
from the
Parks and
Departme
men t:
st ates weThecannot
use the old arena after Recreation
5. To say the
least, we are amazed — we really wonderAugust
wants Junior and Senioz Lacrosse out of the if Port Coquitlam
City.
At the meeting wit.h the Parks and Recreation
Department in Febuary, I believe, Hugh Tait,
Sally
Hurst,
Dave
Parsons, Mazy-Ann Parsons and myself, understood the
old arena
would be available for all games, including
play-offs. Now
according to the letter from the Parks and Recreation
Dept.
the old arena will not be available aftez August
5. Where are
we to play our play-off games?
—

—

—

We
are committed to ouz leagues, to have an arena
to
play in. It is quite impossible
to get another arena at this
time, as well as t: he fact, our Senior
on the admission gate» canressi ans and and Junior teams depend
draw» a part of
our operating
It would be50/50
a great financial
- if
set-back for u expenses.
these games were cancelled because of
arena availability, plus
we would face fines by our
leagues.
Also, because we would be using
a
non
resident
arena
w
e wau ld
e
aced
with rental
of $ 75. 00 per hour and higher,
which we cannot afford. fees
Coquitlam is the only City
and/or Municipality where Port
Senior and Junior Lacrosse
have
trouble wit:h arena availability.
The Poco Saint's Junior 'B're doing extremely
w 11
t his
is year and
we are ant:icipating going to
Esquimalt
in
August for the Championship'The Founders Cup.
I

'UL
4

IgtIU

We
have also been entertaining thoughts of hosting
the Pounders Cup next year~ but can hardly apply if the arena
is not available.
The Poco Saint's Senior 'B'ze just getting off the
ground, but plans are already being made for a better and
stronger team next year~ as well as the possibility of
hosting the play-offs in the future, The Presidents Cup.
Are we required to go through this has -le every year'?
Are Lacrosse players not as important as the ice
skaters? Many of our players feel they are being tzeated like
second-class citizens.
We
agreed at the meeting, (.o advise the Parks and
Recreation Department if we do not make the play-offs and as
soon as we no longer need the arena. Our Commissioners will
advise us of our play off games as soon as the last league
game is played and we would then advise the Parks and
Recreation Department. We cannot use the arena until April 18
and do not feel Lacrosse using the the arena for 3 months is
too much to expect. Your assistance in helping Senior and
Junior 'B'acrosse in Port Coquitlam is very much needed and
would be greatly appreciated. Should you wish to speak with
the Commissioners~ they are:
SENIOR-Mrs. Dozeen Morris-584-5823(res)
JUNIOR
Nz. Frasez MacDonald 591-3793(re-) 251-7713(bu. )
They would be pleased to answer any of your questions.
We
are, needless to say, very upset and disturbed
over the Parks and Recreation Department's letter and so aze
our players and parents, a majority of which, reside heze in
Port Coquitlam.
Attached i the Mayor's Message on behalf of the City
of Port Coquitlam, wishing our teams the best ---- somehow,
the words do not fit in with what is happening.
We would like some assurance, not just for this year,
but future year:., the old azena will be available for

lacrosse.
