Re: Indiana Tornadoes

I know that Andymark the building is safe and everything there is work as usual once the power came back on. As far as I know of, Jon will confirm I am sure, everyone's house is alright and they are fine. I can't speak on behalf of all the teams (Panther Tech and Cybertooth) in the area, but I know no one (that I am away of) on the TechnoKats was displaced. I know one of our mentors had property and car damage from wind but not a direct hit. Everyone here is physically OK. A significant portion of Howard county is still without power but Duke Energy is working around the clock to get power back to effected areas. I don't know of any funds to go directly to teams but I do know of many funds set to help everyone in our community. The United Way and Red Cross have been a huge help deploying and mobilizing volunteers also providing shelters and meals to effected families.

If anyone wants to come down to Kokomo to help with the clean up effort, go to this website http://unitedwayhoco.org/community/v...r-kokomostrong and register your group and they will email you with information on where to go. They want to make sure people are going where help is needed while not getting in the way.

I appreciate you for bringing this is up to the realms of Chief Delphi and appreciate any help you guys can offer.
