Volunteers are arriving from out of town this weekend to help Ozark Countians in need of assistance clean up after last week's ice storm. If you're interested in volunteering this Saturday, call 417-679-3002. Or, if you or someone you know need help, call the number. Volunteers are meeting at the Gainesville courthouse around 8 a.m. Saturday. A crew from Americorps (see http://www.americorps.org for more info about the organization) are currently stationed in Ozark County to help organize volunteers and connect them with folks who need assistance. All types of volunteer are welcome, whether you have equipment (trucks, trailers, chainsaws) or none at all, it doesn't matter.
I know a lot of people are still busy cleaning up their own yards, etc. Just don't forget to check on your family, friends and neighbors - especially older folks and others who might be in need of some help.
