RED KETTLE CAMPAIGN MAKES GOAL

A $5,000 check delivered on Thursday from a Salvation Army supporter put this year's Red Kettle Campaign over the $100,000 goal. Campaign co-chair Brian Lehman told the Brainerd Dispatch that they were really happy about that. This year's bell ringing competition winners were the Rotary Noontime Club, Lakewood Evangelical Free Church, Brainerd and Onamia High Schools and Edina Realty. The Salvation Army helped more than 2,300 indivuals and nearly 1,200 children this past year.
