A barbecue was held this afternoon at the west end Co-op in Portage la Prairie. The Westend Day Care Centre held the fundraiser.

"The proceeds are going toward activity supplies for the children at the Westend Day Care Centre," says Janice Delf, executive director. "And we're selling hot dogs, hamburgers, smokies, and we also have some rainbow auction prizes here as an extra fundraiser."

Delf adds she appreciates the community support, noting folks came and bought food and tickets for prizes. She says many donations came in as well, and the Centre's very grateful.
