I will be make the drive down to the LCR Saturday Morning at dawn, shovel, brooms, wheelbarrows, whatever in hand.  

I will be helping 1GR, OdT, Stokes, Vader and the other LCR guys  their families, friends, whoever.

Sign up here so we can get organized.


I am sure there is gonna be a lot of mess in a few of our buddies homes. If your nasty ass has ever been to OdT's house and enjoyed his hospitatlity, then I am sure we can count on you to be there to help him, his family, his neighbors......whomever.

Sign up in this thread. IM me for my cell so we can get this rolling.



Mods can I get a 1 week Tack?

We had something planned, but will try to clear it tomorrow.  I have an old wheelbarrow that I can donate to the cause.

I'll probably hinder more than help but this is our chance to finally show a little appreciation for 1GR giving us crabs every year.

i may be able to come down on saturday, provided that my own property doesnt flood (still waiting for it). Ive only met one fellow arfcommer before, and I am always up for helping out other shooters. if you would like.  i would need directions and a contact number. I see that a few of the guys from Sno county cant make it but are offering materials (if anyone can bring them down). i have a full size pickup if anyone needs something hauled. Im up in Monroe.

Derrick's Dads's house got a a lot of water in it, and Stokes basement is filled to the rim.  OdT's driveway is going to need some major repair.  All and all everyone except Derrick's Dad did pretty well.

Fine. I will buy a rake anyway and rake up my own debris...  or wait for it to dry out and let the wind take care if it... one or the other.

Derrick said they can handle it.  Main thing is you can't get to his house anyway, the driveway is gone.

If an Arf.comer needs an excavator and small dump truck for a day to help clean up let me know. All I ask is for you to pay for the fuel and I won't drive my truck through more than 6" of water.

I wish the best of luck to those of you who got creamed by the storms. Mommity's gone for the weekend, so, it would be a perfect opportunity for me to come help. But, I took a whack in the noggin with a steel door and can't do anything physical for a while. I suppose I could drive and watch.....

I've never seen destruction like this in person. Unreal. It was quite incredible to see the people down here working hard and wasting no time at all in gutting houses and helping others clean up this disaster. A very humbling experience to say the least.
