Help Needed

I am in need of someone with a truck or ability to hitch those two giant lights we rented to their vehicle to take them back.

 

 

They need to go to Arts Rental on Monday morning.  They are currently in the stadium behind the school.  Arts Rental is on Kenton Lands Road.   If you are able to pull the lights up to Art Rental please call me directly at 859-653-0902.

 

Thanks,

Robb
