Basketball Manitoba would like to share with its members a special notice on its upcoming office relocation occurring in the coming months. The last day that the current office will be located at 200 Main Street is Friday December 18, 2009. The new office location for the organization and all other sports currently housed in the Sport Manitoba building will be at 145 Pacific Ave in Winnipeg's Exchange District. Unfortunately, the new building may not be ready for use until as late as March 1, 2010. Over this transition period, the current office staff will be working from their respective residences and will maintain regular phone and email contact during normal office hours (M-F, 8:30 am - 4:30 pm). Items can still be dropped off during business hours or mailed to the organization in the main floor mail room at 200 Main Street, Winnipeg, MB, R3C 4M2 over this period as the staff will be making regular visits to the old building. Basketball Manitoba will also be suspending its Book & Video Resource Library services and Basketball Store until the relocation is complete. The last day available to access either service will be Friday December 4, 2009. All efforts will be made to ensure there is little to no interruption in the services the office currently provides!
