The federal government opened its wallet to help assist three Kelowna projects.
The feds are contributing $323,586 for the projects.
Conservative MP Ron Cannan made the announcement Tuesday morning at Centennial Hall in Rutland.
The bulk of the funding ($273,586) will go to the Rutland Park Society for renovation and modernization work at Centennial Hall.
The other two projects will split the remaining $50,000.
- $20,000 for the Friends of the South Slope Society - Restore recreational trails in Myra-Belleview and Okanagan Mountain provincial parks
- $30,000 for Okanagan Trail Riders Assn. - Upgrade trails, bridges, and campsites in Kelowna.
Funding was made possible through the Canada 150 Community Infrastructure Program.
