Original post from Chief of Withlacoochee Regional Search & Rescue, Samuel J. Matychak III:
On Saturday and Sunday, we will be there Conducting a MASSIVE SEARCH to clear as much land as possible to reduce the Possibility of Detection of Mrs. Hartley. If you want to volunteer, make sure you wear something bright in color including a Orange Traffic Vest as there are hunters in the Forest. Also, pack a small day backpack with essential items like extra clothing, personal first aid kit, flashlight, snacks and drinks. We are coordinating with American Red Cross to provide a Canteen Unit to feed the volunteers involved in the search.
Our Base of Operations will be located at the Ocala OHV Trailhead on forest road 11/88 just 2 miles north of County Road 316.
If you have any questions or want more information please contact (941) 786-6565 or (352)843-6733.
What we know for sure right now is the following:
Location: Command Center; 2 miles north of CR 316 on FR 11 (known as FR 88 on google maps.)
Time: 8:00 am will be a pre-search briefing. If you can’t make 8:00 am come out when you can.
They will open the facility for camping Friday and Saturday. Primitive Camping Only, there is a bathroom and shower house on the grounds. I would anticipate the bathrooms and showers to be open.
****
Keep in mind searchers will be asked to walk long distances and need to be prepared for what they may find.
For those of you coming out… THANK YOU!!!
