Saturday, July 18 was a big success for Riverdale Splashpark Committee, which hosted a fundraising auction and social. This day at Riverdale Community Centre included family/children’s events and a barbecue supper, which was provided by Rivers and Area Lions Club. Profits from supper stayed in the Lions’ coffers but the rest of the proceeds from the day went directly to the splash park. It was amazing to see a community pull together for a special cause!
