A local organization that is always associated with ringing bells in front of businesses during the holiday season will be back at it this week. The Salvation Army will begin its annual Red Kettle campaign to help people in need of assistance this year. Chair of the Door County Salvation Army Tom Mulinix says the local efforts are geared towards shelter assistance.
Mulinix says by pooling resources together, more people can be helped. Bell ringers this year will be wearing masks and gloves while using disinfectants to sterilize the bells and red kettle containers. Only individuals or family units will be ringing the bells this year to maintain COVID-19 protocols. The Salvation Army’s 2020 Red Kettle campaign will begin throughout Door County this Friday. Kewaunee County will start on November 27. You can listen to the complete interview with Tom Mulinix on the podcast page.
