Coquitlam Sharks Aquatic Club is a finalist in the Keg Steakhouse's 40th anniversary Thanks a Million grant program.
The Keg is offering 40 grants worth $25,000 each to organizations in areas that house a Keg Restaurant. The Sharks are finalists in the Vancouver out-lying area, one of the 40 such territories being considered throughout Canada and the U.S.
The Sharks club was short-listed based on its initial application. Eight finalists were chosen from the area, which includes Surrey, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Abbotsford, Langley, Richmond and the Tri-Cities. The finalists' applications were then posted on the Keg's website.
A one-month online voting process, that ends after this week, will determine the ultimate winner for the area.
Visit www.thekegthanksamillion.com to cast your vote for the Sharks' application.
Should the Sharks win, the money from the grant would be used to buy pool equipment for the club's swimming, water polo, diving and synchronized swimming factions.
