To the editor:
I would like to dispel a
number of rumors about the
Morrow County Search and
Rescue Unit that seemed to be
going around. They apparent
ly range from being disbanded
to falling apart. Just the op
posit is true. The Search and
Rescue Unit is alive and well.
Our roster shows 16 current
and active members. Dan Mc
Bride is coordinator and Nor
ris Dooney is captain of the
unit. They are an active,
needed group of volunteer
citizens.
These people should be high
ly commended for their time
and effort in producing a
highly professional organiza
tion. The Search and Rescue
Organization has traditionally
been coordinated through the
