Denise Kerns championed the American Red Cross at Monday’s meeting with Karla Long, a SMWWC member and American Red Cross professional speaking for her on the need to supply funds for the efforts to keep those searching for State Highway Patrol officer Fred Guthrie Jr. hydrated and fed. The search for him has stretched into over a week now and the strain on their budget has been crippling. The location is remote and the availability of food and water is not convenient. It costs $600 a day to take the Emergency Response Vehicle loaded with the drinks and food necessary for all the people involved in the recovery effort. Karla had just returned from the scene and told firsthand how your donations will make a huge difference in the situation.
