C 244 w/1 col LIA: $5000 Anonymous donation made to support Laconia Ice Arena Capital Campaign

LACONIA — A recent donation to the Laconia Ice Arena Capital campaign provided a boost to the cause last week.

"We are so thankful for this generous donation, as well as all the support that has been coming through from our community," said Will Fay, business manager of the arena. "This donation, in particular, makes a nice impact in our efforts for this capital campaign. As a campaign that is primarily funded through public and private donations, we need the support of citizens and community-oriented businesses, in order to continue serving our kids." Fay said that with the generous community support, the arena is getting one step closer to its fundraising goal of roughly $220,000 over the next 24 months.

The Laconia Ice Arena "think rink for kids" plan provides for improved parking, updated refrigeration equipment, as well as reduced fees for youth and community.

Contributions can be made in the following ways; cash, corporate sponsorship, grant money or matching funds. Labor, pledges and estate planning is also encouraged. Financial commitments will be made public, but should donors choose to remain anonymous that wish would be honored.
