A man from Rosenort is attempting to fill an entire semi trailer with shoeboxes.

The shoeboxes are part of Operation Christmas Child.  

 

Kerry Brandt is vice president of Paul Brandt Trucking of Morris.  

 

He, along with country music singer Paul Brandt are driving from BC to Nova Scotia collecting filled shoeboxes as part of Operation Christmas Child.  

 

Brandt says it's quite a remarkable sight to see young children dropping off these boxes which they know will have a huge impact on another child's life in a less fortunate country.  

 

The semi will make a stop at the Safeway on Dakota Street in Winnipeg Thursday and then in Rosenort Friday for those wishing to drop off a filled box.  

 

By the time the semi reached Saskatoon the trailer was already more than one-third full.
