The 2024 Christmas Hamper Project, sponsored by the Three Hills Food Bank, set a record this year with 88 hampers delivered by the Three Hills Thrashers hockey team Dec. 14. From the left, back row: Dane Richardson and Lucas Hoppins; front row:: Porter Pennock and Bryce Fenton. The hampers, a generous combination of perishable and non-perishable goods, included the applicants’ choice of a turkey or ham, plus all the fixings for a wholesome Christmas dinner. Young children received age and gender appropriate gifts. Organizers were impressed with the continued strong community support for the annual gifting. ECA Review/D. Nadeau
