JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – A small donation from a young Jamestown boy has sparked a large outpouring of support from other children and the community.

Liam, a 4 year-old in the OnTRAC Learning Center, made a small donation form his personal piggy bank to support the fundraising efforts for the Two Rivers Activity Center (TRAC) Splash Park.

TRAC Facilities Manager Amy Walters says young Liam’s donation has now sparked the “Splash Makers Club”.

Walters added that any youth that donates will become a Splash Maker and will receive a t-shirt showing their support, and a small surprise when they make their donation.

She pointed out they have partnered with area banks to help host a challenge through “piggy bank” donations.

The challenge will run through January 31st, 2021.

Walters says with the mild winter we’ve had so far, it’s allowed Meidinger Splash Park construction to proceed at a quick pace.

Walters added they also continue to sell engraved and personalized bricks that will be laid out on the site. Those interested can visit tracjamestown.com or call TRAC at (701) 952-8722.

Walters also discussed current COVID-19 protocols, hours, and future courses and programs.
