$1-million donation a big boost to Wellesley Township’s $27-million rec. centre project
Charged with raising $2.5 million towards the new Wellesley Township Recreation Centre, the fundraising committee got a big boost this week in the form a cheque for $1 million.
Bill Gies, who was born on a farm in St. Clements and who got his start as a developer in Wellesley, provided the signature on the cheque. His name will adorn the project’s main facility, which will be known as the Bill Gies Recreation Centre.
