June 13, 2008
The area east of downtown has been evacuated and the volunteer effort
has been moved to the American Legion. Sandbagging continues with
the focus on strengthening weak spots. The crest is expected on
Monday. Again, we are grateful for the outpouring of goodwill and
generosity and the support of the various agencies involved especially
The Guard.
June 12, 2008
The rivers are rising and every effort is being made to control and
minimize the negative effect that we might come from the flooding. A
large levy system has been built to protect the businesses and buildings
east of downtown and the water plant. We are grateful for the many
volunteer hours, the support from various agencies and the Governor's
office and the many donations of food and equipment. For more
information please check back to this website or regional media sources.
