The Wilderness Workshop event is a children’s playground fundraiser for the community of Ste.Rita, Manitoba.
🖐️ 🌳 🤚 This year there will be a great opportunity to help the community this event is hosted in, and make a statement, or give a sentiment. We will be creating a donor tree of life on a highly visible wall inside of the community centre. The leaves will be made out of a variety of wood plaques in the shape of hand prints. Hand prints were chosen as a symbolic representation of the "Ste.Rita Friendly Hands Club"! You can find the plaque details under the ticket options. Corporate sponsorship options available, please reach out to the event organizer for more information.
