With not much else going on for Canada Day, one local man thought what better way to celebrate then helping fellow citizens.
Dan Hill, from Lumby, packed up 51 bags of food (complete with juice boxes, healthy snacks and even a treat) to hand out to those living on the streets in Vernon Wednesday, July 1.
