    HIDDEN ACRES BOWLATHON

    This year we would like you to donate directly to HAC if this is possible. There are three options. You can make a secure online donation by visiting www.hiddenacres.ca/donate and choose ‘annual bowlathon’ as the fund you wish to donate to; or send in a cheque marked bowlathon to “Hidden Acres, 1921 Line 37, New Hamburg, N3A 4B5, or make an e-transfer to ‘maryanne@hiddenacres.ca’ and let her know what password you used. Hidden Acres ask that you please indicate that you are supporting the bowlathon to help them keep track and issue receipts. Last year’s bowlathon raised $36,262.00. They had to use part of these funds for day to day operations but were still able to purchase and replace new septic and water system pumps, and complete other retreat centre restorations. Thank you again for your continued support of this worthy project. Sandra Bean.
