For a second year in a row, the sta o the local In-tegra ire Store in Minnedosa has given a portiono their paycheques to Minnedosa Regional Events
Centre. Te employees have $10.00 deducted o eachcheque and it is matched by the store owners, Dan andGaylene Johnson. o date, this has totalled $3,300.00.
Store Manager, Murray Birch says I wish more busi-nesses would get involved this way and support thisproject. When you think about it, $10.00 per payday is
less than one cup o coee per day. Birch goes on tosay, Employees in Minnedosa should get together anddo this in their workplace with their co-workers also.
Store owner, Dan Johnson said I a small business likethis one can make a contribution like this, imagine howmuch can be raised i the rest o the community got in-
volved in this same way?
