Community Clubs to get Grants

The four community clubs in Kenora will be getting much needed funding

to help make it through the winter.

Kenora City Council has approved grants of six thousand dollars each
for Pinecrest, Rideout, Central and Evergreen.

Recreational Services Manager Colleen Neil says the money is really to
help off-set the cost of utilities, such as water, which is needed to flood
the rinks during the winter month, and to heat the buildings.

She adds that Rideout Community Club was able to access a reserve fund
this year to help fix up the floor of the building.
