Boost for Ultra-sound

The Township of Dawson presented the Rainy River Hospital with a $1,000.00 donation on Monday to help with the cost of the new Emergency Room Ultra-sound. This brings the fundraising drive to the $56,000 mark, just $4,000 short of their goal of $60,000. Fr. l. to r., accepting the cheque is Nurse Manager Tammy McNally and presenting the cheque is Dawson Councillor Linda Armstrong. If all goes well the training of the local doctors will be done Nov. 17 and 18th and the machine will be available for ER use on the 19th.
