Today marks the day for the official kick off of the Salvation Army Angel Tree.  The tree is set up at center court of Westgate Mall.  The tree will feature over 1400 angels that need to be adopted.

On May 11, 2014 wildfires spread through the city of Fritch destroying or damaging over 2500 acres of land and over 130 homes and buildings.  The residents of the Panhandle came together to help their fellow men, women and families, who lost their homes.  We were able to send a moving truck full of supplies to the area a few days after it happened.  After that we teamed up with our friends at ProN

Each year the Salvation Army has a contest to see who can ring the bell the longest. It has become an annual event and this year Amarillo has a contestant taking part.  This year's goal is ringing the bell 60 hours straight.

While you are out and about doing your Christmas Shopping this weekend.  Remember the Salvation Army Angel Tree this Holiday Season.  The tree contains the names of children in the Panhandle Area who are in need of a Christmas this year.

Twenty-Four Salvation Army Bell Ringers will set out to break a record today starting at 11am CST.  They will set their sites on ringing their bells for 36 or more hours straight.
