SUNDAY FUN DAY!

Kinley’s 10th Annual Toy Drive was held at the Kindersley Centre (Mall) parking lot on Sunday, June 1st. This year’s event was held in conjunction with the Flatlanders Speedway Show & Shine. Residents and businesses filled the ambulance with toys for the Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital, which were delivered this past week by Kinley and her mom to the hospital in Saskatoon, providing comfort to kids who need it most. Kinley was diagnosed with biliary atresia at only 3 months old in 2013 and underwent a liver transplant before she was a year old. Kinley’s family believes in giving back and has been spreading the word about the disease for early detection, as well as the importance of organ donation.

Flatlanders Speedway and Kinley’s Toy Drive combined forces for a family-filled event, showcasing some great looking vehicles and accepting donations of toys for the Jim Pattison Hospital. The RCMP cruiser got a new paint job and Bluey and his friend were also in attendance, much to the delight of the youngsters.
