The Christian County Crimestoppers Board recently honored board member George Yard (left) with a 20-year service plaque, for his many years of service to the Crimestoppers organization.   Yard currently serves as president of the board.

The Christian County Crimestoppers organization has been in existence since June of 1987.   It offers anonymity and cash rewards to persons who furnish information leading to the capture of fugitives. Crime Stoppers is based on the principle that someone other than the criminal has information that would solve the crime.

Tips can be sent anonymously on the organization's web site here, or by calling 1-800-568-TIPS.
