Clementsvale fundraiser

This Thursday, a fundraiser will be at Forrester’s Hall in Clementsvale for the family of Sia Van Wyck, the seven-year-old girl who died due to a farm accident.  She was playing in 1-metre tall hay, the operator of equipment being used to mow the hay did not see the little girl; and struck her on July 19th.

It gets underway at 7 p.m.

The family is from Maine, and they are facing many costs following the tragedy.

You can also make donations at the Digby Town Hall and the Digby Recreation Commission, along with Marshall’s Gifts and Souvenirs.
