The local Salvation Army has quite a bit more money in its account after the annual Festival of Salads. The line yesterday at the First Baptist Church in Coffeyville stretched to the front door as many took part in the annual fundraiser. A variety of different salads were available in addition to baked goods and jewelry for sale. According to the Salvation Army's Joe Brooks, money raised will support a variety of projects, including the school backpack program, which provides food to school-age children. While many may only see the Salvation Army ringing bells at Christmas, Brooks says this event is a reminder of the work that the group does year-round.
