Officials with Flamboro Downs would like to express their gratitude to everyone that helped make sponsoring local families such a huge success.
"We at Flamboro wanted to help a family in need in our community so we put on a raffle and silent auction and had lots of donations," Marnie Bochenek told Trot Insider.
Thanks to the generosity of the local horsemen, Flamboro will surpass its goal of helping one family. The donations result in helping six families have a happy holiday season.
"We wanted to thank everyone for helping make these families have an awesome Christmas," Bochenek continued. "We couldn’t have done it without the generosity of Flamboro Downs' customers, staff and horsepeople. Let us not forget the kindness of our local community businesses that donated to our raffle and silent auction items."
Plans are for Flamboro to organize a similar drive for donations in 2018.
