Hi Team
The pace has been incredible and so has the success of our team in providing assistance and support to families who have lost their homes, families that suffered extreme water damage and those families that experienced a lot of exterior damage to their property. Here are some opportunities coming up this weekend that you can help with:

#1 - Saturday, a home off of Highland Valley road did not burn but had
extreme smoke damage and potential erosion issues. Help is needed removing all the items out of the house, placing sand bags and erosion snakes throughout the property. 8:30am to 4:00pm Need approx 10-15 volunteers

#2 - Saturday, a home in RB needs help placing sand bags to bank behind house to prevent erosion issues. 1:30pm to 4:00pm. Need approx 10-15 volunteers

#3 - Saturday, a home in RB needs debris removal and areas sifted for family valuables that hopefully survived the fire. 8:30am to 4:00pm. Need 20-2 volunteers

#4 - Saturday, a home in Ramona needs debris removal and areas sifted for family valuables. 8:30am to 4:00pm. Need 20-25 volunteers

E-mail me back and let me know which opportunity you want to sign up for. Go to our website at http://www.ffcc-sd.org/ for what to wear and what to bring.

We are still looking for donations for meals to put in gift baskets that we will be delivering to families who lost their homes and to continue each
month until they get back in their homes. Please help us get the word out.

Look forward to hearing from you. I'm sure there will be changes between now and Saturday so stay light on your feet. Much help is needed so get the word out and let's go make history this weekend.

Remember, no food packaging event this weekend Nov 11. This has been rescheduled to Dec 2nd. Come and help us put together 50,000 meals for local families in need and families in Tanzania, Africa. Go to our web-site for more information.

Thanks
Phil Harris
