MURRAY — The search continues for missing Kayelyn Louder as loved ones prepare another outing to look for her before the snow begins to fly.
Louder's cousin, Amy Fugal, said the search will be on Saturday, November 22.
"We're hoping to get as many people as possible to get out and really look and really search before there's snowfall in Utah," Fugal said. "So we need as much help as possible."
Volunteers are asked to meet at Birkhill Condos, 4276 S. Main Street in Murray. Volunteers can check in at eight or 10 a.m. for instructions.
"With snow cover it will definitely be harder to look," Fugal said. "As I think of the winter, if she was out there somewhere, it just makes me sick to think she's just, be out there all winter in that. We need to find her if that's the case."
The Marc Klaas and KlaasKids Foundation offered to help in next Saturday's search. Fugal said it is that sort of kindness and the help from many strangers that gives them hope.
We're not giving up. We're going to keep on looking.

"That's helped us to keep going and just our love for Kayelyn. We love her so much and we need her home," she said. "I miss her and we need to find her."
The family said they're not giving up, but each day gets harder. The search she said, is like a needle in a haystack.
"We almost have more scenarios than we did on day one," Fugal said. "Because we haven't had, you know specific leads that lead us in one direction, so honestly all the scenarios are still on the table which is kind of hard to know where to look and what to do."
Fugal said Murray detectives are still working on the case and there are two private investigators as well.
"We're not giving up. We're going to keep on looking," she said.
Those looking for Louder continue to use Facebook, Twitter, e-mail, flyers and billboards to help with the search.
Fugal and many others also wear a purple and yellow ribbon, pins and bracelets everywhere they go.
"So when people ask what the ribbon is for we can tell them about Kayelyn," Fugal said. "Purple is her favorite color and yellow is just the color for welcome home so we wear those together."
