Wawa's emergency services and others will be out in the community this weekend, to raise support for an annual tradition helping the needy in the community.
Michipicoten Volunteer Firefighters Association Past President Kyle Ouellet explains the firefighters are joining in the annual "Fill the Sleigh" event tomorrow.
Ouellet notes the firefighters are also partnering with staff from St. Augustine French Immersion School on Sunday.
Emphasizing the hampers support those in need - families, seniors, and others - Christmas Hamper Fund President Richard Watson explains they offer a few items to brighten the season.
Watson notes the hampers will be distributed Thursday, December 15th.
The "Fill the Sleigh" event runs from 11 am to 2 am Saturday at the Red Apple store in Wawa, with the food drive in Wawa - including the Mission - from 10 am to 1 pm Sunday.
