2012 Spring Bottle Drive

I would like to thank everyone who came out and helped out on our 2012 Spring Bottle Drive. It was cold and wet but we collected a ton of bottles for our group and lots of food donations for the Edmonton Food Bank.  The money raised from the bottles goes towards funding the great programs our Leaders and Parents help put together.

The Scouts and a few Cubs took the food donations to the University Fire Station No. 3 and were invited in for a quick tour.  We saw the different types of trucks our Fire Fighters use for different emergencies, saw the different types of tools that they use and watch the our them practice knot tying exercise and practice their rescue skills.   I would like the thank our City of Edmonton Fire Fighters for taking the time to show our youth what you do and inspiring them.
