Community Grant for Greening Blaine Lake Rink
The Community Initiatives Fund (CIF) recently awarded $32,470 to the Blaine Lake Community Fund-Raising Organization to update the Blaine Lake Skating Rink and help reduce its operating costs. "The Blaine Lake Rink is a great example of a project that improves community strength and vitality," Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Bill Hutchinson said at the Blaine Lake site. "I'm pleased that the Community Vitality Program can help organizations, such as Blaine Lake Community Fund-Raising Organization, improve their facilities. Together, we are building a vibrant, sustainable and stronger Saskatchewan. It reinforces my belief that volunteers are the backbone of all small town communities in Saskatchewan."
