Tuesday, August 27th, 2019 -- 11:33 AM
-Rick Dailey, Administrator of Clark County’s Forestry & Parks Department, announced a new and substantial commitment to the Fairgrounds Revitalization Project by an anonymous donor.This Donor has agreed to contribute $100,000 to the FRProject once fundraising efforts reach the $350,000 donations mark; for a (then) grand total of $450,000 raised through fundraising efforts. To date, contributions received or pledged towards the FRProject total approximately $252,000; leaving a balance of $98,000, yet to be raised by fundraising team members, in order to meet the anonymous Donor’s challenge. FRProject fundraising committee members will be focusing their efforts to bring this capital campaign to a conclusion within the coming months. Additionally, various Clark County 4-H and FFA Clubs (and Alumni) are planning events to help reach the $350,000 donation goal. As previously announced, the Clark County Forestry & Parks Committee has prepared their Department’s 2020 calendar year budget to include a dollar for dollar match of all past, current and future fundraising efforts.
Upon final approval of the 2020 Department budget by the County’s Finance Committee and the County Board of Supervisors, plans to proceed with permitting and construction bid process will commence. Anyone who would like to contribute to this Livestock Building Project can mail their check to the: Clark County Community Foundation Inc (fiscal agent for the FRProject) at 301 N. Main St. PO Box 116, Loyal WI 54446. Additional information can be found on the Foundation’s website at www.clarkccf.org or by calling 715-937-6167.
