Rimbey, Red Deer projects get Co-op Community Spaces grants
Rimbey and Red Deer will benefit from the latest round of Co-op Community Spaces grants.
Rimbey will get funding for a new outdoor rink which, according to a release, will ensure the community can take part in lower-cost activities like hockey, ringette, basketball and other things.
The project, which is located at Rimbey Elementary, is getting $100,000 towards its roughly $200,000 budget. The rest had already been raised for the project, which was the brainchild of three Grade 6 students — Reed Toussaint, Tavish Beagle and Dutch Felt — four years ago.
In Red Deer, funding will go to the Waskasoo natural playground project.
