Correction: It should be "Edmentum" instead of "Ementum" in the previous post.
Not only are we getting a lot of volunteer labor, we have also been blessed with numerous offers of donations from surrounding schools. Today we picked up a load of desks, file cabinets, and lockers from Owasso Preparatory Academy (See Picture). We have also received offers of donations from teachers or school administrators from Haileyville, McAlester, Woodall, Tulsa, Vian, Gore, Cascia Hall, Shiloh Christian School in Tahlequah, Muskogee, Tahlequah, and Oktaha - just to name a few. Every day brings another donation or act of kindness. An oil company in Tulsa has donated thousands of dollars in office equipment. Ementum Educational Software has pledged an entire year of online curriculum worth thousands of dollars. POE (Professional Oklahoma Educators) is delivering $1,000 in supplies next week. Braggs HS Class of 1967 donated $550. There are too many donations to name at one time, but every gift, big or small, is greatly appreciated.
I want to send a special thanks out to Jeff & Teri Oliver and their co-workers and students at Eufaula Schools. They gave us two full days of extremely hard labor. It would be impossible to compile a list of the volunteers who have helped us over the last few weeks, but we do appreciate everyone's help. Members of the Mormon Church have helped us tremendously as well. Madrienna Rorex has provided food multiple times. Hopefully at some point we can release a complete list. Thank you, and keep coming. We still need all the help we can get.
Volunteers needed this afternoon to help load these items into dumpster. Thanks!

FLOOD RELIEF: Friday and Saturday at Warner First Baptist Church, from 10 am - 7 pm, several relief organizations will be set up to assist flood victims. (This is not FEMA.) Not only will flood buckets be available, but you can sign up for various types of support. You MUST bring verification of residency in the flooded areas. Everyone affected by the flood should check this out. I hear they have some good relief support. Spread the word.

Clean Up Day, 6-7-19
We want to send out a big thanks to the many volunteers who assisted us today. Thanks to Mary & Beau Brewer, Madrienna Rorex, C&W/Connors, and the Church of God group for providing food and drinks today. I will try to get more pictures up over the weekend.
We are in need of a truck, trailer, and driver to take a load of boxed up textbooks to Warner. They are currently under the pavilion. We are running out of room. Thanks!!
I just want to send out a special thanks to Cindy at Gambino's Pizza in Gore for providing pizza for our volunteers yesterday. She also helped in cleaning out our cafeteria. We had numerous volunteer fire departments assist us in our efforts as well. It is impossible for me to name all of our volunteers, but everyone is deeply appreciated.
