The Salvation Army will launch its Holiday Season Kettle Kickoff at 11 a.m., Wednesday morning, November 6, in front of Rural King in the Royal Plaza Shopping Center in Front Royal. The annual fundraiser raises revenue for the organization’s charitable activities that stays in the community.

Several other locations are pending in Front Royal, and the Luray Walmart is also a host site.
