Gord Taylor said the community has really embraced the campaign.&ldquo;We probably collected about 5,000 coats last year,&rdquo; Taylor said. &ldquo;We give them out throughout the entire winter. With the climate here, with all the rain, they typically go through more than one coat.&rdquo;Taylor said The Salvation Army is &ldquo;very appreciative&rdquo; of the community&rsquo;s support and White Hat which donates its time to clean and collect the jackets.Anyone who would like to donate their gently used coats, gloves, toques and other outerwear can drop them off at White Hat (601 11th Ave.) now until Dec. 31.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">\n\tStory Credit:<span>&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.campbellrivermirror.com\/staff_profiles\/114231794.html\">Kristen Douglas &#8211; Campbell River Mirror<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Salvation Army&rsquo;s annual Coats for Kids campaign got a boost from a local hockey team last weekend.The Bantam A Tyees rep team stopped by White Hat Cleaners, which cleans all the coats donated to the campaign, on Saturday with their donation.
