RIDGE, Md. – Ashville, NC along with many other areas of NC, TN, FL need our help! We are supporting an organization that will help where they can….. A member of the Ridge Lions Club, Knights of Columbus Hall has rented a U-Haul truck to be loaded on Friday morning and driven Friday evening to a location for Operation Airdrop!
Due to no vehicular access, all items will be AIRLIFTED to support that community! If you or any of the local businesses have items to donate, the Post will be the collection center (currently 3 pm when the Post opens) until Friday morning then everything will be taken to the Knights of Columbus Hall in Ridge to load and receive donations from 8 am until the U-Haul is full or ready to leave!!!!
