PIKE COUNTY, Mo – The Pike County Christmas bell-ringing campaign sponsored by the Salvation Army, NECAC, Bowling Green Walmart and Louisiana County Market raised almost $12,000 between Nov. 24 and Dec. 24. Pictured is NECAC Pike County Service Coordinator Penny Dixon ringing at Walmart. Local organizations and individuals provided additional ringing. Eighty-five percent of the money – a little over $10,000 – will stay in Pike County to help the disadvantaged.
