ARCOLA - Across Western Canada, Co-operative gas stations held their Fuel Good Day on Sept. 17.

At the Arcola Co-operative gas station, they chose to donate to the Arcola Recreation Board for seating upgrades at the Arcola Prairie Place Complex.

Ten cents of every litre of fuel sold on this day was donated back to the community recreation board and it was a busy day.

Additionally, as part of the Fuel Good Day, the town organized a barbecued meal which had council members volunteering to help in the evening, adding to the day.

General manager Matthew Alemy said the day went great and the strong winds kept the wasps away during the barbecue, which had a steady lineup.

Adding to this excitement, Monster Enterprises donated a Pit Boss four-burner griddle for a raffle draw.

Tanya Pongracz, manager of the Arcola gas station, was the winner of the prize.

“The day went great with many of our consumers, agricultural and commercial members coming to fill their tanks that day in support of the community,” said Almey.

Arcola recreation director Vanessa Dahl was pleased that they were chosen for the Fuel Good Day. She has been the director since November 2022.

At the end of the day, the Arcola Co-op and all those who took the time to fuel up that day and purchase a burger raised $3,656.19 for the Prairie Place Complex.
