Rolling River Festival of the Arts (RRFA) usually alternates between the towns of Minnedosa and Rivers every two years. Although the festival was to move to Rivers in 2016, they were unable to put together a committee to organize and host it. Not wanting to have a lapse, the Minnedosa committee decided to once again host RRFA in their town. Dates have been set for Monday, March 14 through to Friday, March 18, 2016.

What do you do when you love to organize and fundraise? Create an event and take it from there! That’s is exactly what we, Heather Gray and Sherri Dziver, are doing. We plan to do something every year and donate the proceeds to local non-profit organizations. We have chosen Riverdale Splashpark and Riverdale Community Daycare as benefactors for this inaugural event. After costs are taken care of, we will be splitting the proceeds between these two organizations, with the exception of the 50/50 draw.
