It’s been a busy few weeks of community outreach for officers with the North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP detachment.

On Dec. 9 Mounties and representatives from Coast Capital Savings served a turkey dinner to the entire student body at Alexander School.

Officers and volunteers served up 280 plates while Santa was also on hand to give out candy canes.

“Everyone really looked like they were enjoying themselves,” said Cpl. Cari Lougheed of the North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP.

On Wednesday, Dec. 16, the Mounties and their supporters donned the red serge and toured area hot spots singing Christmas carols. The group, dubbed, “We’re Not Going to Give up our Day Jobs” visited Duncan Manor, Cairnsmore Place, Mr. Mikes, Thrifty Foods, Starbucks, and Just Jakes.

If you missed them this year, not to worry, they’ll be back.
