Fundraising Event Not Over Yet

You may not recognize Austin McKinstry the next time you see him!

A couple of days ago Austin at McKinstry Chrysler in Dryden had his more than shoulder length hair buzzed off in support of Dryden Regional Health Centre’s Oncology Unit and A Childs Voice Foundation “Angel Hair for Kids”.

Austin’s long locks were saved and will be sent to make wigs to support those battling cancer.

Meanwhile the fundraising event has garnered 16-hundred dollars (so far) in donations for DRHC’s Oncology Unit.

Monetary donations will continue to be accepted until Friday Sept 5, 2025 at 3:30PM!

To support Austin’s efforts – you can still make a contribution by dropping by the dealership on highway 17 in Dryden during business hours OR send an e-transfer to: bmckinstry@drytel.net

Thank you Austin and supporters for doing what you have done!

When not on-air Richard likes to cosplay as 'Spider-Dad McCarthy'. Listen weekday mornings from 6 to 10 on CKDR and on 'the web' at YourSunsetCountry.ca.
