Centre closed when evacuees were placed

The Summerland Emergency Support Service Reception Centre was closed Sunday at midnight.

Dear Editor:

In response to L. Price, Sept. 20, we are fortunate to have humanitarian interests in our community, such as you.

The Summerland Emergency Support Service Reception Centre was closed Sunday at midnight.

At the conclusion of registering and placing 175 evacuees in local hotels and motels, we received a directive from Emergency Operations Centre in Kelowna to close, as all evacuees were registered.

We take no responsibility for the media and its reporting

John Topham
