Missouri is tied with Washington D.C. for 20th in the nation, in 2015, for the most reported cases of human trafficking. In an effort to raise more local awareness about the problem here at the Lake, a Family Fun Movie, Hotel Transylvania, is being shown this weekend at Osage Beach City Park. The activities start at 5:30 on Saturday with the free movie to start around 7. Donations from concessions will go to benefit the local coalition.
