The Gainesville/Hall ’96 Foundation has made considerable strides since its last meeting in August. The new board met Friday at the Lake Lanier Olympic Center at Clarks Bridge Park to discuss a draft agreement with Gainesville and Hall County, creation of a website and define the hiring process for a venue manager. The nonprofit, also known as Gainesville/Hall County ’96 Roundtable, worked to bring Olympic rowing and paddling events to the area in the 1996 Summer Games and then maintained the site’s legacy.
