The Salvation Army in Salisbury is in financial trouble.
And that could result in the loss of the Richard Hazel Youth Center whose operating costs run up to a $150-thousand a year.
Major Vic Tidman with the Salvation Army Lower Eastern Shore told WBOC that closing the youth center is deeply distressing.
It was built around 15 years ago.
Tidman said unless there is an uptick in the amount of contributions to the organization the facility would have to close although he did not specify when that would be.
WBOC reports that Wicomico County officials are looking into what could be done to provide funding to the religious organization.
It could also take control of the youth center placing it under Parks and Recreation.
