RI ee CT 7 TNF STP TT SN -- eae ae, id tt. ST 1 EN Vg "A Family Tradition for 134 Years" Scugog pitches In to help with toy, food drive By Rik Davie Special to the Star Reports that Durham Regional Police Constable Brian Hall has been taking money from local businesses have proven to be true. In fact, the officer has been soliciting funds from everyone he knows... for a worthy cause. Residents from all over Scugog have donat- ed food and unwrapped toys that Durham cops will get out to those in need over the holiday season. But Const. Hall, being one of those guys who just has to go the extra mile, got into the spirit in a big way. He solicited friends and business associates to the tune of more than $5,000, got himself a truck courtesy of Ajax Textiles, and went to see one of the area's best known chari- ty supporters, Port Perry IGA owner Jim Grieve. Const. Hall said that the response was over- ¥ whelming. 1 Const. Hall and his pe hao no problem 4 fellow officers at 26 ith funds," he said. "As (3 Division have been hard goon as I explained what § at work, with the pub- 1 was doing, the money i lic's help, on the 11th Just started coming.

Hall filled the truck with skids of food. "When Jim knew what it was we were try- ing to do, well, he just stepped up and helped out," said Const. Hall. After making a $1,000 donation to the Const. Bryce MacLean (left) joins Durham Regional Police colleague Brian Hall Saturday, as a truck load of food for the force's annual toy and food drive is picked up at Port Perry IGA. Operation Scugog food bank, Const. Hall climbed into the big rig last Saturday and deliv- ered the mega-food donation to police head- quarters. It will be dis- tributed to families in need across the region. But the drive is far from over, and officers at 26 Division are asking anyone who can to drop off unwrapped toys and non-perishable food at the station on Old Simcoe Rd. until the end of this week.

Please place your tree at the curb or end of your driveway by 7:00 am on that day. GARBAGE COLLECTION - PRIVATE LANES December 20, 1999 will be the last garbage collection date for those residents on private lanes. In an effort to better meet the needs of the residents on the private lanes, the contract was extended from Thanksgiving weekend cutoff date until weather permitted. As I am sure you understand, weather conditions at this time of year are too uncertain, and in order to allow residents time to make alternative arrangements, a final cutoff date had to be set.
