West Shore area Scouts are engaging in a fundraiser to help residents dispose of their Christmas trees from now until Jan. 10.
Members will be on hand for drop-off days at the Luxton Fairgrounds, Jan. 2-3 and Jan. 9-10, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Trees can also be dropped off at Race Rocks Auto, 1057B Marwood Ave. from Dec. 28 to 30 and Jan. 4 to 8 from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Trees will be chipped for a suggested donation of $5 for drop-offs, or $10 for pick-up service, with funds going to the 14th Juan de Fuca Venturer Company and 9th JDF Rovers. The money helps defray the cost of Scouting events and camps.
