Gray ball caps commemorating the efforts of the Kelowna Fire Department and the RCMP can be ordered from the RCMP detachment office at 350 Doyle Avenue until 4:00 p.m. Sunday and Monday over the long week-end, and until 8:00 p.m. during the week. The caps cost $20 and funds will go toward assisting RCMP and ambulance personnel who have lost their homes. Any excess will go toward the “Cops for Kids Foundation”

Black Firestorm T shirts are also available at the RCMP detachment.  Proceeds from T shirt sales will be put toward local charities.
