The 3 Villages Community Group (3VCG) has secured custodianship of the Saratoga Community Hall for five years.
President Taia Sansom signed the lease on February 13, giving the community group a permanent home.
The move came just after the group was announced joint winner of the Best Community Group on the Central Coast category in Central Coast Council’s Australia Day Awards.
The award recognised the group’s outstanding services to the community.
“We are honoured to have been chosen for this very special role and we wish to thank the previous carers, Gaille Martin and daughter Rebecca Fitch, who took great care of it over the past 18 years,” Sansom said.
“Gaille and Rebecca left the hall in excellent order and it’s easy to tell that, having taken care of the building for so many years, it meant something very special to them.
“Many thanks also, to all the previous committee members for keeping the hall safe and in good running order since it opened as the Saratoga Progress Association in 1957.
“The 3VCG committee are very much looking forward to their new task ahead.”
