The Huntsville\/Lake of Bays Fire Department is ramping up for the 35th annual Project Porchlight Food Drive in support of the Salvation Army. Fire trucks, with the assistance of the OPP, EMS, Public Works, and Motorcyclists of Muskoka, will be coming house-to-house to collect non-perishable food donations across our community on&nbsp;<strong>Wednesday, December 6, starting at 6:00 pm.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To participate in the Project Porchlight Food Drive, residents are asked to turn their porchlight on and place their non-perishable food donations at the end of their driveway or on their porch where they will be collected by first responders and volunteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Project Porchlight Food Drive has been an integral seasonal community tradition in support of the Salvation Army, which distributes the donated goods to the community throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMany folks in Huntsville are feeling the impact of our current economy, and this is especially true during the holidays. This makes the 35th Annual Project Porchlight Food Drive more important than ever,\u201d notes Paul Calleja, Deputy Fire Chief for Huntsville\/Lake of Bays Fire Department. \u201cDonating non-perishable food items is a great way to help your neighbour in the true spirit of our tight-knit community and the holidays.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you won\u2019t be at home or would rather drop food donations off in-person, there will be bins placed outside the below fire station locations during the day for drop-offs. Bags for packing your food donations will be handed out at various grocery stores throughout our communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Huntsville Fire Hall Station #1: 1 Payne Dr.<br>\u2022 The Salvation Army in Huntsville: 4 Mary St. E.<br>\u2022 Port Sydney Fire Hall: 387 South Mary Lake Rd.<br>\u2022 Lake of Bays Fire Halls: 1007 Limberlost Rd. and 1230 Fox Point Rd., and 12 University St. in Baysville<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mark your calendars!
