Prince George, B.C.- Residents of Prince George are being praised for their efforts in the Shaw Cable Systems “Cram the Van” event on the weekend.

With one of their blue vans at each of the four Save On Foods locations in Prince George on Saturday, the plan was to collect as much food as possible for the Salvation Army’s food bank.

The one day effort tipped the scales at 4,000 lbs of food being donated.
