The flooding in Chehelis area has been devistating. Our family was there yesterday & today voluterring to help families clean out & prepare for repairs. Many are homeless & have lost everything. There was over 2500 volunteers this weekend, but they are in need of: -Heavy help to cut out flooring, remove subflooring, sheetrock, insulation, etc. Please bring saw-zaw's & other equipment, your own food & water, etc. -People are in need of food, blankets, & Christmas
It is amazing what power water has!!!

Hey Kristine! There is more about this under the "hogs and quiches" thread. I talked to Lizzie (a farmgirl in centralia) yesterday and tonight as I am headed down tomorrow with a van load of donated household items, baby furniture, toiletries, clothes etc. Please let me know if there is anything in particular to take down with me since you've been on-site with the families.

Oh, good idea about tp. I have a costco case and can certainly bring most of that. I'll check the freezer, too, I think I had several bags of bean soup... |
