First RCMP Cram the Cruiser a success

Members of the Clearwater RCMP detachment parked their cruisers at Buy-Low Foods Saturday afternoon for the first Cram the Cruiser event to support the Clearwater and District Food Bank. Clearwater RCMP accepted non-perishable donations, packing the cab of the cruiser, as well as the box. Cash donations were accepted as well. At the end of the day, the donations were taken to the food bank where they were weighed.
