FOR ONE OF OUR OWN.
Canal Fulton isn't just where Jarod lives. It's home.
Jarod has called Canal Fulton home his entire life.
This is where he grew up. Where lifelong friendships were built. Where neighbors became friends and friends became family.
Jarod also chose a career built around showing up for people when they need someone most.
Today, Jarod and the Hare family are facing a road none of them expected.
So on August 31, his hometown gets its turn to show up.
Canal Fulton has been part of Jarod's story from the very beginning.
