The Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) Holiday Train never disappoints, and this year was no exception! The train rolled into Merrickville at 4:45pm on November 28th, to the approximately 2,500 people waiting in anticipation!

The 2024 stop brought in approximately 1,100 pounds of food and $2,700.00 in monetary donations, gratefully collected thanks to the generosity of all those who attended, and of course, CPKC’s very gracious cheque presentation of $4,000.00.
