Kids at the Keethanow Elementary School in Stanley Mission, SK are all set to get out there and stay active, thanks to a Northern store donation of running shoes.

Each year, Northern store manager Patrick Young and his staff donate athletic shoes for children at the school. This year’s donation was presented to the Grade 6 class on February 24.

“We’re happy to be able to provide support in some way, but above all to see the kids happy. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing them smiling,” said Young.
