(CITY OF KAWARTHA LAKES, ON.) -On Saturday, November 9, 2013 Auxiliary officers from the City of Kawartha Lakes detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) teamed up with the Valu Mart in Bobcaygeon with the hopes of supporting the local food bank.
Auxiliary officers were in attendance from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. to receive food donations from the public. Over the course of the event the cruiser was “crammed†three times for a total of approximately 1400 lbs. of food that will help to support over 400 adults and children in the Bobcaygeon area.
Auxiliary Sgt. Gregg Weatherill was amazed by the generosity and stated “the support was incredible and will certainly go a long way to making this holiday season a good one for so many familiesâ€Â.
