In addition to the many who donated food items, some grocery shoppers like June Crowley, who cottages in Arden, offered a cash donation at the August 30 “Stuff the Cruiser” event in support of the North Frontenac Food Bank, which took place at Mike Dean's grocery store in Sharbot Lake. Crowley said that she believes that it is important for her to give to the food bank here as a way of supporting the local community. Also helping out was Food Bank volunteer Dan Cunningham of Mountain Grove, who stressed the importance of giving whenever possible, citing, “a huge need and the importance of taking care of those in the community who find themselves in need of help.” OPP Constable Greg Streng, who was also assisting with the drive, said that Sharbot Lake shoppers were being very generous and by noon both the cruiser and the donation bucket were quickly filling up. Thanks to all who donated.
