The Salvation Army needs bell ringers for the holiday season
Salvation Army Bell Ringer Karla Johnson says they need volunteers to ring bells for the red kettles. Johnson says the money donated in Riley County stays in Riley county, and that money is put to very good use locally.

Johnson encourages new volunteers to have fun with bell ringing, as that brings more attention to the causes the Salvation Army supports.
