An area business is donating almost $1,200 dollars to a gym for underprivileged youth.
Mara Couto is with KBM Outdoors, and tells us on Black Friday they decided for every $100 in sales, they would offer $10 to the Underground Gym. “My twin sister and I decided we were going to match whatever KBM did. I believe KBM came close to raising $600, so we are matching that.”
She adds Peter Panetta, the founder of the gym, knows they are doing this, but does not know yet how much is coming.

Originally from southern Ontario, Jason found his way here and fell in love with the community and music scene of Thunder Bay over twenty years ago. In between various stints on radio, television and writing, Jason is a dad, a partner and (some would consider) a zoo keeper (seriously, he has a LOT of pets).
