June, 2008 Flood

   I hope it doesn't sound like a never-ending complaint, but the West Fork Club needs your help again- I applied to FEMA for assistance, & we were turned down because the grounds/clubhouse aren't a "Primary Dwelling".
   Clean up has already started, with #1 priority being swabbing out the clubhouse & starting treatment against future mold/mildew. The water, heat, & electric systems were not damaged, so we lucked out a bit. Some 'dozer & digger work has already been finished, but many hours of machine time remain before the grounds look anything like pre-flood.
   So once again, I have to ask the members & others who want to support the works of this club to donate whatever possible to help restore the campground & ensure the future of this facility.
