NEWPORT-Although a search for Megan Maxwell in the Tidi Waste Landfill in Hamblen County this weekend was canceled, two other searches for the missing Newport teenager were held this weekend.
Maxwell has been missing since April 26, when her burned car was found about seven miles east of Newport.
According to authorities, they were unable to get a search organized at the landfill this weekend. No future date has been set.
However, CUE Center conducted a search on Douglas Lake Saturday and the Brushy Mountain Bear Club used members and volunteers to search in the Del Rio area.
In addition, CEU is offering a $5,000 reward for anyone who can lead searchers to the direct location of Megan Maxwell; this reward will only last for ten (10) days and will begin June 5th and end at midnight on June 15.
The public does not have to reveal their identify and can be assured the funds will be paid for information that will lead to the discovery of Maxwell.
Confidential tips can also be submitted through Megan's site.

CUE Center volunteers also organized a candlelight service, distributed massive posters of Megan, requesting aid nationwide and even got her case featured on America's Most Wanted Show, which aired again June 6 and will remain on their Web site; they have also erected a Web site for Megan which can be viewed at www.helpfindmeganmaxwell.com.
The Missing, a new Internet show produced in Crossville, has also joined the cause.
The Missing is an online program to help gain exposure for missing children and adult cases in hopes of bringing them home safely, as well as to help pass along information to help families keep their children safe.
In a recent episode host Scott Davis features information and the picture of Megan Maxwell the 19-year-old female missing from Newport.  
Davis resides in Crossville. Visit this link to view this episode, MEGAN MAXWELL <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5fMzkg2a3c&amp;feature=channel_page>.
"We feel that any additional exposure for a missing person is valuable, and where a person may not tune into local news channels or local papers they may look at the Internet," said Davis. "In some cases the victim may be taken out of the immediate area and someone that views our program from another state could make the call that makes a difference."
Currently the show has been visited by viewers in 50 states and an estimated 31 countries worldwide and has received thousands of views via their site and YouTube.
The program is broadcast weekly on the internet via www.YouTube.com/themisingtv <http://www.youtube.com/themisingtv> ; in and through links placed on their site at www.themissing.tv <http://www.themissing.tv/>; and shared with other similar sites to help gain exposure for the cases they will cover on The Missing.
