Phase 3 fundraising for the Portage Credit Union Centre is now in somebody else’s hands.

Jody Fletcher and Roberta Christianson had spent the last 15 months heading up the Phase 3 Fundraising Campaign for the centre but their volunteer commitment ended on Dec. 31, 2009.

“It was a huge, huge commitment,” Fletcher said of her and Christianson’s time at the head of the fundraising campaign. “At times it felt overwhelming but it was lots of fun.”

The two have now handed over the reigns of the fundraising campaign to the Portage Regional Recreation Authority, which is still fundraising through its website.

Fletcher noted that while the co-chairs have stepped down, the fundraising still continues.

“People are still able to contribute and we still need people to contribute,” she said.
