KidSport BC has launched a Delta community chapter, the 41st in the province.
Delta Mayor Lois Jackson, along with Police Chief Const. Jim Cessford, Deputy Fire Chief Ken Sim and members of the KidSport Delta committee were on hand at the North Delta Recreation Centre Feb. 1 to receive a cheque from BC Ferries Marketing Manager Rebecca Skiffington, which will provide KidSport Delta with the resources to develop the new chapter and begin serving children in the local community.
KidSport Delta will provide registration grants for children ages six to18 to ensure all children can participate in a sport season of their choice.
KidSport was established in 1993 by Sport BC as a community based sport-funding program.
