We held a pasta night at Chianti restaurant. Although we didn't have a huge turn out for this event, we still raised $200 for the Park. The food was fantastic and Chianti's staff were fabulous!
The fundraiser we had this weekend was our BIG Garage sale. We had lots of people donate (Much thanks to the Collis Family, The Hellquist Family, the Lindberg family (including Cassy, Nicole & Aimee) and everyone else that dropped stuff off, and those that bought stuff! We still had a truck and van load of stuff left over, so we are going to hold another garage sale in 2 weeks in the City, to hopefully get rid of the rest of it. However in the end we raised over $595 (cash) and another $84 in change!!! Very successful as far as garage sales go I'd say!
A 3rd fundraiser that wrapped up this month was a Home & Gift order party held by Auntie Rachel in Athabasca, Alberta. For those that know Rach's Dad, Richard, please check out the picture closely... does that tree planter on the right look like anyone?!?!!? HAHA
We are now over $16,000. However, we have a significant amount of donations to be handed over to the Park Fund from the Town Office that came in over the Month of May.
So watch for the update this week!!! (I hope that 3 exclamation marks stress the excitement we feel)- let's just say, thanks to our generous family, May was VERY successful for the Park. SO much so, we know for a fact the park will be definitely be in place by next May if not earlier!!
