On June 26, 2009, 11-year-old Lindsey Baum headed out the door of her friend’s house in McCleary and never made it the few short blocks to her own home.
After weeks of endless searching, family members and investigators have found no trace of the outgoing brown-haired Girl Scout. But they continue to rally support and pursue clues as the days drag on...
Baum disappeared June 26 while walking a short distance along Maple Street late in the evening. The 4-foot-9 girl was wearing a light blue hooded shirt and jeans at the time.
Two neighbors spotted her about halfway home, but never saw anything suspicious. Despite a massive search involving multiple law enforcement agencies, investigators have found no evidence explaining her disappearance.

The organization said volunteers will also be able to sign up between 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Friday for search area assignments. All volunteers must be at least 18 years old with photo identification
The organizations stated they hope local businesses or families can donate bottled water, office supplies or copying facilities. For information on making donations, call the Laura Recovery Center at 1-866-898-5723.

Scott said the planned weekend searches are separate from law enforcement efforts, but he hopes they may be able to find something new....Viable
