For the eight year, the community showed its support for the Wetaskiwin and District Boys and Girls Club.

During the Flaman Race for Kids, $27, 942 was raised for programming at the Club.

Thirteen teams took part in the challenges surrounding the Wetaskiwin Recreation Grounds, at City Hall and the Fire Dept.

Program director Justin Wieclaw said all of the money raised will go to the kids and the ongoing community support for this event, and the Boys and Girls Club is phenomenal.

Following the race, Boston Pizza hosted a wrap-up party for the participants.

“All of this is to support children, youth and families in our community,” said Wieclaw.
