It was MCC Day in Portage la Prairie Tuesday.

The charity for the event was Valley View Bible Camp located just outside of MacGregor, Manitoba. MCC was able to donate $3,000 at the end of the day and Michael Bergen, Program Coordinator for Valley View Bible Camp, was thankful for the support.

"It's been a great day, and awesome to see what MCC is doing in the community behind the scenes, and it's been great to see their commitment to support local charities including ourselves."

MCC Assistant Manager Sara Martens says the day was a complete success that saw a lot of people coming in to help out.

"We had line-ups at both doors and it was really busy. It was a great day and Valley View Bible Camp will receive a set amount as our selected charity."

"Primarily the resources we get today will go into our campership fund," adds Bergen. "That will assist in sending kids who can't otherwise afford to come to camp to get that opportunity. As well as just into the general operations of our camp and the facilities."
