Fill an Army Truck – Food Drive
December 10, 2023 @ 8:45 am - 3:30 pm
We have been asked to provide some senior cadets to assist with the FILL AN ARMY TRUCK Event along with our friends at the Royal Highland Fusiliers of Canada.
For 10 years, the RHFC has collected food to help the community with their Stuff an Army Truck Campaign. Started by their Padre Capt Neil Thomsen, CD – it has brought in significant donations of food to the community to help fill the shelves of support systems during the darkest, coldest nights of the year.
This was the first year 296 Sqn has been able to help with the event.
