GREENFIELD — A warm place to stay is being offered to the community ahead of a forecast of heavy snow, wind and below-zero temperatures this weekend.

The Landing Place, 18 W. South St., Greenfield, will be staffed with volunteers on Saturday and Sunday nights for those who do not have a warm place to sleep, through a partnership among several organizations, including the Landing, the Kenneth Butler Memorial Soup Kitchen, the local arm of the Salvation Army and others.

Those interested in securing a place for the night can check in at the soup kitchen, 202 E. Main St., or the Hope House, 35 E. Pierson St. Greenfield Police Department officers are committed to providing transportation for volunteers, said local Salvation Army representative Jim Peters in an email.

Snow, ice and gusty winds are expected to continue well into today, according to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis.
