2010 McHappy Day is coming May 5th. This year the Boys and Girls Club of Wetaskiwin are proud to be the local charity of choice for half of the proceeds from the day. Dollars will go toward the upgrade of our outdoor play space.
So mark your calendar and don't forget to come out to our local McDonald Restaurants and support not only Wetaskiwin and area children and youth but families across Alberta that use Ronald McDonald Houses during the year as a home away from home when dealing with a sick child.
