From a peak of more than 50 people, staffing at Canada Games House is now down to a skeleton crew but they will be kept occupied for several more months yet.
"Of the seven that are here, two will be gone by the end of this month and then two more will be gone until the end of June and three will be on until as late as the end of September," 2015 Canada Winter Games marketing and communications director Mike Davis said Thursday.
"We're in the process of wrapping up financials. We've got to present to our board in April, we're looking at scheduling something with city council later spring... We're literally in the process of paying who we need to pay and just sorting out all the final reporting stuff."
Davis himself will be on the job until the end of June while CEO Stu Ballantyne will be among the last to leave.
"Everybody's surprised when I say that even myself I'm on until the end of June," Davis said. "They say, 'well what are you doing?' And there's actually a lot of work to do.
"March in particular just flew by because you spend the first week after the Games getting everything out of venues, getting everything back to the warehouse and you've got to sort through the warehouse and then you've got to start looking at 'OK, what can we sell, what can we provide to other agencies?'
"We've got items that have to go back to Canada Games council, we've got things that have to go to Winnipeg, we've got people leaving in between that so you're tying to make sure your staff transition out well and helping them with their transition needs."
