The Viscount Recreation Board is continuing to raise funds for a new ice resurfacer as well as upgrades to their arena.

Recently the community held a fundraiser collecting scrap tires to be recycled.

That initiative netted the board over $8,200 which brings their total to just over $40,000.

Their goal is $65,000. Approximately $50,000 is for the Zamboni itself, the remaining $15,000 is to be used for upgrades to the facilitate the new machine.

Bolt FM's Andy Cohen talked to fundraiser volunteer Marty Leffler about their hope for a Zamboni from the tire fundraiser 

If you would like to assist the community is their efforts contact their office at 306-944-2199 or Marty at 306-370-3089.

All donations can be used for a charitable tax receipt.
