The Okanagan Rail Trail just received a boost from Mountain Equipment Co-op.

A donation of $45,000 has been donated by MEC towards the development of the popular trail to help reach the goal of $7.8 million.

“MEC exists to get people active outdoors, it’s what we do,” said Wade Janzen, Regional Sustainability and Community Investor Coordinator at MEC.

“We’re hoping this funding encourages others to donate and help finish the trail.”

Construction on the 48 kilometre long trail started in October 2017 and only $150,000 more is needed to reach the goal amount to complete the project.
