The Williams Lake Fire Department is once again conducting its "Christmas in July" food drive to collect donations for the Salvation Army Food Bank.
From 6 pm to 9 pm on Tuesday, July 31st, Fire Department members will go door to door in the areas of Westridge, Country Club Boulevard, Terra Ridge, Western Avenue, Midnight Drive, and sections of 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th Avenues to collect non-perishable food items.
"This time of year, the shelves at the Salvation Army Food Bank are generally running low," says Fire Chief Erick Peterson. "We’re asking the community to help bring ‘Christmas in July’ to those that rely on the Food Bank by donating non-perishable food items for us to deliver to the Salvation Army."
Residents who would like to participate are asked to place their donations at their front door for the firefighters to collect on July 31st. Donations can also be dropped off at the Fire Hall between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 a.m. July 30 – August 3.
