    Zach Wheeler says some local construction workers on O’Connell Drive were happy to see them and get a jumbo Mr. Freeze.

    Last week, a couple of visitors dropped into Bayfm to deliver a cool treat on a hot and humid day in Corner Brook. Zach Wheeler and Eric White are with the Salvation Army. Wheeler says it’s all about community outreach. He says some local construction workers on O’Connell Drive were happy to see them and get a jumbo Mr. Freeze. The duo will likely be seen more times throughout this summer in the white Salvation Army van.
