The Salmon Arm Salvation Army was the recipient of a hefty donation.
About 2,500 Girl Guides, who were in Salmon Arm last week on their way to and from Enderby for their Spirit of Adventure Rendezvous, donated more than 13 thousand pounds of perishable food to the Salvation Army. The food was intended for a camp-out last week that was rained out with Wednesday’s storm.
Almost as soon as the food arrived over the weekend, it was gone.
“I have never seen it as busy as it is today,” said Salvation Army community co-ordinator Dave Byers on Monday.
