The Skate-A-Thon raised $3,600 for the arena and that does not include fundraising proceeds still to come from the Minitonas Middle Years School.
\n<\/br>
\nThere were also plenty of unique and colorful creations. <\/p>\n

\nThe kids were treated to hotdogs and halloween treats giving them plenty of energy to wear off out on the ice. <\/p>\n

Near the end of the event, prizes were given for costumes, fundraising efforts and age of participants.
\n<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n

The youngest skaters provided a glimpse of the many years of fun and recreation that lie ahead.<\/p>\n

It was a great time to hang out with family and friends.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even the Swan Valley Stampeders got into the spirit, stopping by to show their support and hang out with the kids.<\/p>\n

The day was a perfect combination of kids, costumes, candy, prizes and a good cause.<\/p>\n
