The Salvation Army's Christmas kettle campaign will start with a splash.
A kickoff event featuring a trio of musical guests - The Bel Canto Choir, Jaymie Walker, and Cliff Raphael - will be held this Friday at Pine Centre Mall, 4-6 p.m.
The campaign will run until 2 p.m. on Christmas Eve, Monday to Saturday, at all four Save On Foods, the Real Canadian Superstore, Pine Centre Mall, Walmart, Canadian Tire, the Spruceland Shoppers Drug Mart and London Drugs.
Kettles will also be up at the B.C. Liquor Stores at Pine Centre Mall and Hart Centre starting Saturday, December 1 and at Costco starting Monday, December 10.
And with the help of players from the Prince George Cougars, kettle campaign donations will be accepted at all eight Tim Hortons drive-thrus on Friday, November 30, 6-9 a.m.
Other businesses interested in the adopt-a-kettle program can call 250-596-HOPE for more information.
Volunteers to ring the bells at the kettles remain welcome. You can register online at www.sapg.ca or by calling 250-596-HOPE (4073).
