The Lyon County Salvation Army Annual Red Kettle Campaign Committee wishes to extend our sincere gratitude to the Marshall Hy-Vee, Runnings and Ace Hardware for hosting our Christmas season bell ringers this year, and a heartfelt thank you to all the volunteers who rang those bells for us. We also want to thank Brad’s Market in Minneota, Tracy Food Pride and the Cenex-Ampride stores in Cottonwood, Minneota and Ghent for hosting countertop Red Kettles this year. A special thank you goes to Hy-Vee for hosting our kickoff Santa-thon and matching gift; and to Jim and Hunter Kontz at Prudential Financial for hosting a campaign kettle at their annual dinner and their matching gifts. With your help and the generosity of the people of Lyon County, we were able to raise over $34,000 to help our friends and neighbors right here in Lyon County in their time of need.
