The Burlington Dads don’t seem to do anything in a small manner. When Tobin Izatt and Darcy Douglas set out to manage a bottle drive for the Dads Group, they never realized how much the boys had in storage while the local beer stores were shut down not accepting returns. Angelo Marra, Stephen Cardoso and a few other heavy lifters from the group joined in and they found themselves with trucks filled with empties during the weekdays preceding the one day event meant to be Saturday May 9 in Burlington.

Benefactors for the proceeds will be shared between Halton Women’s Place and the Burlington Food Bank. Tobin says they are still counting but at 40,000 units right now.
