Thanks trail enthusiasts, Over $300k raised over Christmas break!
as of February 14th, 2017.[/alert]
[lead]We’re not sure who was naughty over Christmas, but we sure know who was nice and generous! Our fundraisers were hard at work over Chirstmas and New Years raising an amazing $300,842 from December 1 until today. Ever since the Agricultural Land Commission issued the final permit in December, fundraising has really taken off![/lead]
11 Kilometers of Trail sold, and only 13 remain.
The entirety of donations during the holidays are eligible for the Rural Dividend Fund and BikeBC funding (grants to encourage healthy living, and safe cycling infrastructure, which fits the mandate of the WLT completely). We have applied for $1.5 Million in donation matching funds, and this year the final permit is in hand.
