Call for volunteers at the Red Cross Equipment Loan depot in Oliver. Now that the Osoyoos depot has closed, the local depot is experiencing higher traffic and needs volunteers.

The Oliver depot has a new name, the equipment is now being cleaned in Kelowna, there is more space for storage but there isn’t necessarily enough cleaned equipment for the people who are coming by.

The turnaround time for equipment to be cleaned and sent back is two weeks.

Contact is Thelma at 250-498-4065 or 250-498-6700.
