Giving

to “Art for Parks”

A pair of donations have been given to the upcoming “Arts for Parks” event, which is being held this Saturday (Feb. 25) at the AMA Sportsmen’s Association. The volunteer committee members received a $500 donation from Royal Canadian Legion Br. 157 (above) with co-organizers Kurt Reffle and Shawn Wilkie accepting the cheque last Thursday night.
