Christmas In July Brings Out Bell Ringers

June 28, 2017

The Salvation Army is bringing back its "Christmas in July" Red Kettle Campaign next month. On Friday and Saturday, July 14 and 15, patrons at seven locations in Traverse City will see the familiar red kettles with one of Santa’s helpers, decked out in a Santa hat – and shorts. This is the second year for the campaign. The goal is to raise $10,000, with 100 percent of donations collected staying local for local programs to help local individuals and families.

The seven Christmas in July partner locations are Espresso Bay(downtown), Family Fare (8th St.), Horizon Books, Oleson’s Food Store (Long Lake), Oleson’s Food Store (Hammond), Tom’s Food Market (East Bay), and Tom’s Food Market (West Bay). Anyone interested in volunteering should call Mary Vollink at 946-4644 x 308 or email.
