Taproot Theatre’s Insurance Increases Greenwood Arson Award to $25,000

Taproot Theatre is using its Burglary and Arson Insurance coverage to allocate $15,000 to the NW Insurance Council's award for apprehending the Greenwood arsonist or arsonists, bringing the award up to $25,000.

"We recognize the impact the fires have on our entire community, from the businesses who lost everything on October 23 to the fear the fires have instilled in many others," said Taproot's producing artistic director, Scott Nolte. "It is our hope that the crimes will be solved before any more arsons are committed."

The NW Insurance Council announced this morning that the Arson Award Fund, which it sponsors along with the Arson Alarm Foundation, is now at $25,000, and encouraged anyone with information to call their local authorities or the Arson Hotline at 800-55-ARSON.
