A number of area residents gathered at Fort Frances High School last night to show their appreciation for the outgoing coordinator of the Rainy River District Substance Abuse Prevention Team.
Hugh Dennis says his past three years with the SAP-Team have been very rewarding.
"To work in the district with seniors and young people and the Substance Abuse Team as a group has been fabulous," says Dennis. "Obviously it's been a work of passion, but its also been very, very rewarding."
An end in provincial funding is forcing the SAP-Team to continue without a full-time coordinator.
