When Inland Kenworth Parker Pacific was approached to make a donation to the Multi-Centre, they invited their clientele and employees to join in. The local branch proposed a matching program to their corporate office, with the goal of buying a seat section by matching customer contributions up to $10,000 and employee contributions up to $2,500. Expectations were surpassed with a total donation of $27,500, coming from CD Lee Trucking, Zapper Contracting, Nick Richter Trucking, Inwood Trucking, Active Rent-All, Quesnel Sand & Gravel, Unimac Carriers and Inland Kenworth Parker Pacific employees and matched by the head office.
Brent Allen, Parts Manager at Inland Kenworth Parker Pacific in Quesnel says, “It was the generosity of our customers and employees that made this possible. Our contribution reflects our commitment to this community.” He added, “We applaud all individuals and businesses that have made contributions to the Multi-Centre project.”
“On behalf of the fundraising committee, I want to thank Inland Kenworth Parker Pacific for working with their business friends to support the Multi-Centre. It is that kind of community spirit that will help us get to opening day,” expressed Bernice Heinzelman, Chair of the North Cariboo Multi-Centre Fundraising Committee.
Inland Kenworth Parker Pacific and friends will be sponsoring a seat section in the arena as well as 10 seats in the theatre with their contribution.
The North Cariboo Multi-Centre will be a modern facility designed to replace the 62-year-old arena and aging theatre infrastructure. It will feature a 1,600 seat NHL-sized arena, a 450-seat performing arts theatre and accompanying event and assembly area.
