Lindsey Baum went missing one year ago on June 26, 2009.  She was only 10-years-old and hasn’t been seen since.  Lindsey vanished from a small town of 1,500 in Washington state as she walked home from a friend’s house. Over the weekend, to mark the one year disappearance, her family and friends gathered for a large event to help remember this beautiful child and help remind the public of the faces of other missing persons throughout the Pacific Northwest.I spoke with Michele Bart who helps to represent families of missing children, and also sits on the advisory committee of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s “Take 25” program.   She’s been working hand-in-hand with Lindsey’s mom Melissa since last October. She told me that throughout the day about 300 people attended the event including the grandparents of a missing boy and Susan Powell’s parents, Judy and Chuck Cox.  There was plenty of food, music and sunshine.  The Cox family shared their plans to open a foundation in honor of Susan Powell.  The foundation is geared towards public awareness on domestic violence. Another positive note was the recovery of a teen that ran away nearly seven months ago.  She showed up at the event, and eventually came clean with who she really was, and was reunited with her family.  Michele says there will be an annual event of this caliber to help honor those who have vanished from the lives of loved ones.

Investigators say last summer Lindsey Baum left her friend’s house to walk home, but she never made it there.  Lindsey was only four blocks away just after 9 p.m. when she vanished on June 26, 2009.  Authorities say they have received hundreds of leads, and have conducted searches, but sadly nothing has turned up.  Just this week, the FBI announced they are adding to the reward to help find Lindsey which.  That reward is now $20,000 and a new search effort is being planned.

Lindsey was 10-years-old at the time she went missing, since then she’s had a birthday, a new school year started, and the holidays have come and gone without her family having any answers.  This beautiful child was last seen wearing a gray or blue hooded pullover shirt and blue jeans.  Let’s try to bring Lindsey home.  If you have any information, please call the Grays Harbor County Information Hot line toll free:  (866) 533-8765 or e-mail soadmin@co.grays-harbor.wa.us – You can even mail information to:  McCleary Police Department P.O.
