The Oregon Trail Chapter of the American Red Cross will be providing support to the search and rescue operation for missing camper Robert Bissell in the Roaring Creek Wilderness area near Rock Lakes.

The Chapter has deployed an EKRV (mobile kitchen) along with volunteers to serve lunch to an estimated 30 workers. While no further meals are scheduled, the Chapter will continue to support the operation as needed.

In Oregon, the American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disaster an average of 10 times a week; supplies more than 90 percent of Oregon's blood; teaches thousands of Oregonians lifesaving skills; offers transportation to seniors and the disabled; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a charitable organization – not a government agency – and depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.
