In the communities of Winchester, Chesterville and South Mountain, community volunteers worked to prepare boxes of food and gifts to be distributed to individuals and families through the North Dundas Christmas Fund. Chesterville and District Lions Club President Jordan Hodge mentioned there were 69 boxes being prepared for distribution in Chesterville, with well over 200 boxes in total in North Dundas. A sincere note of thanks was expressed to the community of North Dundas for their continued support of the North Dundas Christmas Fund.
