(Circus Kids accept $1,000 cheque)

It was an expensive night for the Kenora and Lake of the Woods Regional Community Foundation.

The Foundation handed out over 107 thousand dollars worth of grants to about two dozen local community groups.

The biggest share of the funding came from the Moffatt Family Foundation with over 42 thousand dollars handed out.

Randy Moffatt says it's been a great pleasure to be able to give back to the local community.

Triple Play was one of the big winners of the night, collecting a couple of cheques totalling over 12 thousand dollars, while the Minto Parent Child Resource Center collected over 11 thousand dollars in funding.
