Yesterday a wonderful collection of volunteers spent most of the day collecting food in a drive-thru food drive and Okotoks… you pulled through!! Literally!


Rebecca and her family along with the amazing folks from Simply Floors spent their Sunday afternoon grabbing and collecting food that YOU put in your trunks and truck beds. I got the chance to spend most of the day with them ...well, 6 feet away from them! I wanted to share some of the stories I heard and saw while I was there. 

First of all, YOU PULLED THRU!!
We filled the cube van to the brim! 
A big thank you to the wonderful lady who came with a vanload of senior care items. We started chatting and I found out her mother had passed away recently and it would have been her birthday that day. She told us her mom would have wanted nothing more than to help people. To that wonderful woman... the items you game us will definitely help families who need it. Thank you a million for your help and thank you for sharing your story! 
The Alberta Dance Academy came by thru around 3 o clock with food and items from a food drive they had earlier in the month! 

And... the amount of TOILET PAPER that came through!! Okotoks! You. Killed. It. 

To MLA RJ Sigurdson and MP John Barlow, Kristin, Matt, Sam, the crew from Simply Floors and of course the "Lee-ton" family!

That was a cool day!
