At their meeting Sunday night the Aqua Centre Community Committee reported they have just over 300 thousand dollars in their fund raising account so far. The city has applied for a grant towards the new pool through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program and expect to get a response in the spring once the federal and provincial government budgets are approved.
They also reported there’s a lot of entertainment coming up as fund raisers. This Friday Flin Flon Recreation is sponsoring a Doc Walker concert at the Flin Flon Community Hall as a fund raiser for the Aqua Centre with advance tickets only at 35 dollars at Northern Rainbows End. As well on February 15th Ann Ross and Doug McGregor at putting together a Local Roots Coffee House Benefit with a family friendly night of music at the Community Hall at 7 pm. Tickets will be sold at the door for ten dollars for adults and 5 for 12 and under. Plans are also underway for other fund raisers including another golf tournament in August.
