The food bank challenge is back for another year in Bridgewater. It's an event in support of the Bridgewater Interchurch Food Bank and features local paramedics, town police and members of the RCMP. The goal is to try and raise as much non-perishable food as possible heading into the holiday season. Paramedic Nicole Monahan says the idea for the event was thought up four years ago.
Donations can be dropped off at the RCMP station on Cooks Lane, EHS Base on North Street or police service detachment on Exhibition Drive. The friendly challenge culminates with a winner declared at the Atlantic Superstore on December 1st.
