LATEST ON "CAMP KATRINA"
Richard Dorman of the Cunningham, Bounds law firm reports: "Well, we took another loaded truck over on Sunday. Full of food and cleaning stuff. We also had a group who stayed and manned the distribution tent all day. I am getting way to old for all this lifting!! Things are only looking slightly better down there, but I didn't have time to ride down 90 to see if things were better down the road. I really don't know how it could be since I think electricity is still very spotty at best. With all the destruction only a massive rebuilding is going to make it look better.

In any event, we have delivered 6 truckloads over the last few weeks not including the meat truck your folks donated. Yesterday they cooked the ribs that were donated for lunch and they were great!! Unfortuantely,we have about reached our limit on resources at this time and do not plan another trip this weekend. Yesterday we handed out food to a constant flow of people for almost 6 hours. People were coming from everywhere and driving as much as an hour to come to the distribution center to get needed food and supplies. I asked people where they were from and many were coming over from Louisiana becuase they couldn't get the things they needed over there."
