LAKEPORT – As a cost-saving measure, the American Red Cross of Lake County has moved out of its building at the Lake County Fairgrounds in Lakeport.
However, the Red Cross will be housing manikins and supplies at the Kelseyville Fire Department, as well as offering classes for families and youth in the fire department’s training room.
“We’d like to thank Richard Persons and his staff at the fairgrounds for being such generous landlords for the past few years,” said Red Cross Executive Director Donna Neu. “We were very fortunate to be able to work in such a great location.”
But, due to economic reasons, the Red Cross can no longer afford to pay a monthly rental fee and will be moving out of the fairgrounds location in early September.
Luckily, Kelseyville Fire has stepped up to help the Red Cross continue to maintain its presence in Lake County.
“We appreciate the partnership with the Kelseyville Fire Department and look forward to offering life-saving training classes in the future,” Neu said.
Disaster volunteers also will continue to offer disaster response and training in the county.
Be sure to stop by the Red Cross First Aid Station during the Lake County Fair this year.
The Red Cross will have volunteers in the station who can also provide safety and preparedness information.
For more information about the Red Cross, to sign up for a CPR or First Aid class, or to volunteer, please call 707-263-8451.
