Kathie Harrop, customer services representative for ATCO Electric, visited Honey Capital Park on April 16 to present a $1000 cheque to Selena Sliger, president of Falher and Area Beautification and Leisure Activities Society (FABuLAS).
“At this time we are very excited to receive the donation from ATCO,” says Sliger. “The ongoing support from industry is vital to our project moving forward.”
FABuLAS has a number of plans in the works this year, which include the installation of a toddler play area and the completion of the fence on the west side of Honey Capital Park.
The society is also planning to install some components for older children and youth.
FABuLAS will hold its Family Fun Quad Rally, which is a reliable annual fundraiser for the society, on May 27.
All those wishing to participate in the rally should bring their insurance and registration and remember with some vehicles helmets are mandatory.
Helmets are not required in vehicles that have manufacturer installed roll bars and seat belts that have not been modified and are being worn.

The rally is a one-day alcohol free, no camping or fire event with a food vendor on site.
