Legacy Co-Op Donations to the Town of Springside
Springside Fire Hall Expansion
The Town of Springside would like to share our immense appreciation to the Legacy Co-Op. Earlier this spring, Legacy Co-Op was in our community to delivery a cheque for $10,000 to the Springside Fire Department for the Fire Hall Expansion Project.
Ridge Runner Arena Roofing project
Last week, they returned to provide a $10,000 in kind donation towards the Ridge Runner Arena Roofing Project. This covered a large portion of the plywood that we need to re-sheet the rink roof. Please support Legacy Co-Op as they have been very supportive of our community!
