Many local community members, farmers, and agriculture suppliers invested time and made donations toward the project. 70 acres of farmland was rented from farmer Don Ferguson, and 30 acres donated by the RM of Moosomin. The combines were provided by Rocky Mountain Equip- ment and Steel Creek Farms. In total, the harvest and donations generated about $15,000 that will go toward the New Leisure Centre. “We are already looking forward to next year, and injecting more do- nations into the community,” says Jeff Warkentin, who is one of the co-chairs for the project.
