The town of Watrous is inching closer to their goal of purchasing a new zamboni for their rink.

G3 Canada Limited Colonsay recently provided  $25,000 to the fund.

Ross Affleck with G3 explained why they made the donation, "Watrous is in our geography, our area that we do business, it's important to us as an area to draw grain from and certainly we recognize that rinks whether skating or hockey are important to the people that we do business with so it was a no-brainer."

The Watrous Pharmacy also generously donated $10,000 this week as well.

Recreation Director for Watrous, Taya Tokarski said they are now around $10,000 away from their $150,000 goal.

They hope to make the zamboni purchase very soon.

The Watrous Pharmacy presented $10,000 to the Watrous zamboni fund.
