Charity Challenge Launched for Winter Carnival

Tourism Kenora says local charity groups are embracing the charity challenge

leading up to this year's Winter Carnival.

Charities will keep 50 percent of the proceeds of any button they sell for
the winter Carnival.

Heather Paterson is Kenora's Tourism Development Officer and says eight charities
have signed up.

The Winter Carnival will take place the first weekend of March and most of the events will take place down at the Harborfront or Mount Evergreen.
