Anyone in need of a fan should go to Lexington Police Department located at 111 Maiden Lane in Lexington for assistance during weekday business hours from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

If a Town of Lexington resident has transportation issues, a Community Action Team (C.A.T.) officer may be able to bring a box fan to them at their home.

For all box fans given away, an acceptance and release of liability form must be completed, according to the police dept.

The police department says whenever possible box fans have been given to those in the greater Midlands area also.
