SNOWPLOW AND PICK UP TRUCK COLLIDE—PLOW “WINS”

Echo Bay, Ont.,

There were no injuries after a snowplow and a pick up truck collided on an Echo Bay back road over the weekend.

On Saturday 13 December 2003 at about 8:00 a.m. the plow and the pick up truck were headed in opposite directions on McCarrell’s Lake Road behind Echo Bay. The two vehicles met on a curve in the roadway. The pick up truck slid into the path of the plow and the pick up ended up in the ditch. The pick up had to be towed from the scene while the plow truck was able to continued plowing.

" KOPS N' KOFFEE FOR KIDS" .... TOGETHER FOR EASTER SEALS

Sault Ste Marie, Ont.,
No, we are not a little too early for Easter, and yes we know this is the Christmas season. Once again it is time for your civil servants of law enforcement to be "civil" while we "serve" you a coffee to benefit the many kids of EASTER SEALS.

On Tuesday December 16, 2003 between 9:00 a.m and 12 noon all the Law Enforcement agencies in and around the Sault Ste Marie area will be serving coffee at both HUSKY RESTAURANTS in Sault Ste Marie.

Members of the Sault Ste Marie OPP, Batchawana First Nation Police, the Anishnabek Police Service and the Sault Ste Marie City Police have teamed up to help raise money for EASTER SEALS.


All the proceeds from every cup of coffee sold at both Husky Restaurants, from 9:00 a.m. to 12: 00 p.m., on Tuesday 16 December 2003 will be donated to the Easter Seal Society in Sault Ste Marie. Instead of sitting and drinking coffee we are going to "turn the tables" on ourselves and we will be serving coffee to everyone at both Husky Stations.

Uniformed police officers from all the local police services will don the aprons, the hot pots of delicious Husky coffee, and we will be looking for you and your empty coffee cups at one of the two Husky Stations. Come on over or come on down to one of the Husky Stations and fill your cup (instead of ours) and help raise funds for the many kids of Easter Seals in Sault Ste Marie
