Hits

A Moon River cottager has donated winnings she made in a radio contest to the Save the Bala Falls campaign. According to an article in the Toronto Star, Deborah Ylanko didn’t take long to give the $3,300 she won on a radio station contest, to a cause dear to her heart. According to the article, she’s cottaged on the Moon River for 54 years and cares deeply about what might happen to the falls, should Swift River Energy’s plans to build a new hydro plant there happen. Save the Bala Falls Member Mitch Shnier was very pleased with the donation.

The matter is currently under review by Environment Minister Jim Bradley - more environmental studies could happen if he decides they should.
