On Monday, a cheque in the amount of $1,500 was given to the committee to put towards the cost of the playground as part of the Community Wellness Fund.
Thank you Digby & Area Community Health Board!
On Saturday, the committee held a fundraiser for the playground at DES where there was a yard sale, facepainting, BBQ, games for the kids, raffles on a print by Poppy Balser & seafood provided by Brock Longmire, and a bouncy kingdom.
Over $1,800 was raised!
Also at the fundraiser, the Digby Lions presented us with a cheque to cover the cost of a swingset with an accessible swing seat. Keith Trimper's mother & brother, Lisa & Brandon Trimper, were present, as well as the family of Dawson Drew, when head Lion Mary Anne McCormick presented playground committe chair, Sean Fredericks, with the cheque.
Thank you Digby Lions!
