NEWS RELEASE
TOWN OF INNISFIL
*************************
INNISFIL - Over 100 golfers came together Friday for the annual Innisfil Mayor’s Golf Tournament at National Pines Golf Club, raising $37,350 for the Rizzardo Health & Wellness Centre.

“Thank you to each of our sponsors and guests for supporting healthcare in Innisfil,” said Mayor Lynn Dollin. “You continue to amaze and inspire us with your generosity.”

The Rizzardo Health & Wellness Centre partially opened in the spring. The Centre currently hosts two family doctors’ offices, the Barrie & Community Family Medicine Clinic (walk-in clinic) and LifeLabs. RVH outpatient clinics, a pharmacy, the Horodynsky Community Kitchen, and more, are expected to open by the end of the year.

“It has been amazing to see the Rizzardo Health & Wellness Centre come to life over the past few months,” Dollin remarked. “Every time I visit, I see more and more people accessing health services that they would have had to leave town for just a few short months ago.”

Generous donors – including today’s sponsors and golfers – have played a large role in turning the vision of a health hub into a reality. “We simply couldn’t have done it without you,” said Dollin. “The Rizzardo Health & Wellness Centre was truly built for the community, by the community.”
