Stephanie Baker Quotations

What we wanted to do was bring a lot of people together, identify what people need, come up with a solution to meet those needs and apply our resources to implement those solutions.

We figure we have to sell about 20 funnel cakes to buy one pair of shoes.

We'd like everyone who is still here to contact the Chamber (566-2294) to let us know they're here, let us know what their needs are. When everyone was in hotels, it was easy for us to communicate with them because we simply used the hotels as our base of communication.

We know that many organizations in our community will continue to have benefits to raise funds for the relief effort in upcoming weeks. The Chamber will serve as a clearing house for that information, and we will publish a regular calendar in The Messenger detailing the upcoming events and services or programs available to evacuees.
