Spent a bit of Saturday morning helping to deliver some of the over 850 blankets for seniors collected during this year’s run to 3 different long term care homes in HRM with the Hot Country cruiser.
Also donated $103.50 on behalf of the station to the cause to help out.
10 long term care homes were the beneficiaries of this event.
Tip of the greasy ball cap to Nicole Martelle for all of her hard work in organizing this blanket drive through the years, it keeps getting bigger and better.
St Vincents, Oakwood Terrace and The Admiral Long term care homes were the ones I came along with, but other homes where blankets went to residents in time for the holidays were:
Camp Hill (veterans memorial)
White Hills Long Term Care
Northwood Homecare
Home Instead Homecare
Northwood Manor
Ivy Meadows
Fishermen’s Memorial
We are thrilled that it all worked out so well. Thanks to all who donated and a HUGE thanks to Nicole for allowing us to be a small part of this annual tradition.
