A local volunteer group in Nain is hoping you will join them in gathering wood for elders in the community.
Christina Hackett is a councilor with Labrador-Grenfell Health in Nain.
She says the group is known as ‘Omatik’.
It is made up of adults who meet to deal with anger management and substance abuse issues twice a week.
Hackett says the group came up with the idea of gathering wood for elders as a way to give back to the community.
They will be heading out on the land to gather the firewood this Thursday.
She says they’re still seeking volunteers to provide snowmobiles, Kamutiks, chainsaws and manpower to their effort.
Five or six people have already volunteered for the excursion.
Hackett says the volunteers will be meeting at the mental health office early on Thursday morning.
You can contact Hackett at the office if you are interested in volunteering your time or equipment.
