This just in, the Saltair Slo-Pitch League has been given a reprieve and will operate this season at the Centennial Park ball fields after all.

Amanda Redpath attended the Cowichan Valley Regional District meeting Wednesday afternoon that was to determine the league’s fate after the Electoral Area Services Committee had recommended denying a Special Events Permit.

Redpath reported Area G Director Lynne Smith changed her motion to approve the league and all voted in favour of the permit for the league to use the fields.

“We will be on tight restrictions and not have much room for any error but at least we get to play,” enthused Redpath.

More information to come.
