Barbecue fundraiser moves dream van towards reality

The Market Square in Swift Current was full of life yesterday, as hot dogs were served to hundreds of patrons for charity.

“(Living Sky Casino) is so organized,” stated Eunice Morck, the treasurer of the Silver Wings Access Van Inc. (SWAVI). “They said that they would set up everything, do everything, buy everything, and we would just get to accept the money, and that's exactly what they did.”
