Kettle Campaign at Half-Way Mark

(Fort Frances Mayor Roy Avis helped kick off the Salvation Army's Kettle Campaign earlier this month)

The Salvation Army in Fort Frances is just over the half-way mark towards meeting its financial goal in this year's Christmas Kettle Campaign.

Captain Angel Sandoval says just over $8-thousand has been raised since the campaign kicked off at the beginning of the month.

"Things are a little slow," says Sandoval. "We can ask the public that if they have any spare change to put it in the kettles. Everything is going to help pay the expense of the campaign."

The Kettle Campaign comes to an end this Friday afternoon.
