Discovery Co-op signs on as platinum sponsor for Winter Games
Discovery Co-op will be a platinum sponsor for the Saskatchewan Winter Games, thanks to their $25,000 commitment to the event.
The announcement was officially made at a cheque presentation at Lawrence School on Tuesday at their ‘pay it forward’ lunch, where they provide schools all over the Battlefords with food for lunch and help serve it. Discovery Co-op also announced it will be the food sponsor of the games, responsible for feeding athletes next February.
“We are very very lucky that the [Games] are able to be here,” Mike Nord, general manager of the North Battleford Discovery Co-op said. “Part of what a Co-op is about is being a part of the community. Because our members are made up of the community, [it’s important] that we’re a part of that community.”
Rob Rongve and David Schell, co-chairs of the Winter Games committee, were also on site with some of their other Winter Games crew members to help out and meet some of the kids at the school.
