Storm Update, 3 September:
County Route 3 is open now at Mead Road (Alan Reynolds house and shop). A great many thanks to all who worked so long and hard to make that miracle happen so quickly.
There are clean up kits donated by the Red Cross available at the Grange for anyone who needs one. They contain mop, broom, bucket, gloves and other cleaning supplies. Jenn Bouton can get more if we need them and she encourages people to take them even if they have a small amount of water, that's what they are for.
There is an emergency center at Belleayre with FEMA and SEMO for filing claims for storm damages. They are serving hot meals 3 times a day and have a food pantry to help with supplies. Jenn Bouton will be working at the emergency center at Belleayre all weekend and if anyone needs anything from the food pantry and can't get there please let her know and she will try to help.
