    Yes Samaritans Purse is up there helping. I went to the Boone location and volunteered a few years ago. They get things done. They worked me hard.
    Here is a link with a video if anyone would like to donate. We need to get the word out. These people are in dire need.

    Our local electric Co Op sent numerous crews, they are in George working. Reports we are getting is the Co Op they are working at 100% of the electric poles have been broken or overturned. They have to rebuild a century’s worth of infrastructure but before they can do it they have to clean up thousands of down trees.

    Good reminder to pick up some extra fuel for the generators just in case of an outage.
