As a special project to make many Christmases brighter, the Bucyrus Safety Council is collecting boxed and canned goods for the Salvation Army. The Red Kettle coin and bill collection will be at the meeting to help make the season brighter for those in need. The public is welcome to join this project.
Eighty-seven local companies are currently participating in this program. Membership is open to all area residents and businesses. New for this 2014-2015 year a 4-percent rebate is available for active Safety Council participation and now 2-percent rebates are available for group-rated companies.
