Bastrop, Texas has adopted Waveland, Mississippi as a relief mission. After Hurrican Katrina slammed into this community, there was such devastating damage that the official reports said there were no survivors. With great tenancity and heoric efforts of support, the people of Bastrop, Texas have had a steady stream of relief being trucked in daily. When the Bastrop folks arrived late Thursday after the storm, they were the first outsiders to come in with relief to this area. While there is now help coming from other sources, our help is still needed. This is a monumental task and we would greatly appreciate any help you would like to offer.

Items still needed:

Food, Camping Gear, Personal Hygene Items, Diapers, Formula, First Aid, Sun Screen, Insect Repellant, Air Mattresses, Cots, Gasoline Generators (and the gasoline to run them), Tarps, FLood Buckets, Tables, Chairs,Shovels, Rakes, Hoes, Hand Saws, Rubber Boots, Can Openers, New Sock & Underwear, etc.

Think about being dropped on Gilligan's Island and what would you need to surive, that's what we need..... everything! Please contact Don Dye through 512-303-5442 or Deborah Jones at 512-303-1010. Thanks to everyone who has already participated in this effort of survival.
