In an effort to assist thousands of residents without power on Christmas Day, warming stations have opened at three locations in Lincoln County.
Readers in the area who have power and out of state readers unaffected by the power outages may want to contact others they may know who are suffering from a power outage in Lincoln County and advise them of these locations. All of the locations will remain open until power is restored.
Alna Fire Department at 1647 Alna Road in Alna; telephone 350-5562 for further information.
Dresden Fire Department at 100 Patterson Road in Dresden; telephone 737-9434 for further information.

It is also strongly advised that residents in areas with power outages check on their neighbors, especially the elderly… And what better time for such a visit than Christmas Day?
