The Barkerville historic site lost its tourism grant after attendance dropped drastically during the pandemic. In an effort to help keep their doors open, Cherrisse Reink organized a GoFundMe with a goal of raising $10,000 for the historic site.
“With the lack of visitors they may stand a chance of being closed,” Reink said in her plea for help on the gofundme page.
“We should now stand together to give Barkerville a chance. I will be reaching out to our lovely community in hopes we can try to help them - whether you donate or go and purchase tickets or even donate bottles to go towards this fundraiser.”
All donations will be presented to Barkerville on September 17th 2021.
