Over 10 thousand dollars was raised this year during the 5th annual Dane Kaleta Memorial BBQ.
Taking place yesterday, the community came out to support the Ronald McDonald House and other community organizations.
Curtis Kaleta, one of the organizers of the BBQ, says it’s great to see the support from the community.
“Every year it seems to be great, a huge success every year. I think this year was just as good as last year and it always seems to be about that same amount raised, which is great to see. Great to see all the community out. We had two of the women from the Ronald McDonald House yesterday and they were just impressed with all the people that came out to support the BBQ.”
So far 5,170 was raised from the auctions. The current tally sits at more than 5,370 dollars with a few more numbers to factor in.
Money raised went towards the Dauphin Girl Guides, the Ronald McDonald House and the Dane Kaleta Scholarship Fund.
