At the Executive Committee meeting, there was a discussion to close the shops during the middle two weeks (2nd and 3rd week) of August to catch up on our banked overtime obligations to our staff (and to give our volunteers a reprieve as well). Otherwise, the shops are only closed from Christmas Eve to New Years. This is a quick-fix solution, if and after, the shops are closed we can review the outcome and set this mandatory break into our annual calendar. A separate discussion is how did we accumulate this much overtime and how do we prevent this from happening in the future. A shop shut-down could also further the recognition and appreciation of our staff and volunteers. It is an opportunity to possibly raise funds and interest of new volunteers in a similar manner as CKUA, etc.
