Brandon, MB. - Members of the Brandon Wheat Kings will be pitching in this Wednesday as Canada celebrates Tim Hortons Camp Day!

This year, more than 16,000 will attend one of the six Foundation camps located in Parry Sound and St. George, Ontario, Quyon, Quebec, Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia, Kananaskis, Alberta and Campbellsville, Kentucky.

Local Tim Hortons owners Craig and Rhonda Pardy operate all five Tim Hortons locations in Brandon (18th Street, Trans Canada, Victoria Avenue, Shoppers Mall and BRHC) as well as one in Virden.
