The Niverville Skating Club had a great skate-a-thon in February, with 20 skaters raising $1,174 during the two-hour event. This means that $587 each will go to the Niverville Skating Club and the future multiplex. Skaters had fun on the ice sporting their superhero costumes.
The top pledges came from skaters Jake Dodge, Chase Leah, and Zoe Bardal. Zoe Bardal and Stewart Huddleston won for best costumes. Prizes included cash, Cineplex movie passes, munchies, and a Toys R Us gift card. Free GORP bars and bottles of multiplex-branded water were given to each skater.
Sponsors included Sparkline, GORP, Ivivva, Chicken Chef, Valley West Landscaping, real estate agent Benny Woligroski, Gym Kids, BSI Insurance, Friends of the Plex, the Steinbach Family Resource Centre, and Bigway.
The organizers wish to thank Crystal Woligroski, Elissa Leah, Tara McGimpsey, and Leslie Bardal, as well as Chantel Todd from Niverville Recreation and Heather Miller from the multiplex fundraising effort.
