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.

We got a lot accomplished today, but we still have a lot of work ahead of us. We are expecting numerous crews and individuals to volunteer tomorrow as we continue to remove salvageable items and begin the demolition and gutting process. We are in need of the following items: generators, large fans, lunches around 11:00-11:30 a.m. (sandwiches, fruit, etc.), snacks, beverages other than water (gatorade, soda, etc.) & wet wipes. We will begin at 8:00 a.m. again in the morning. Thanks to all the wonderful volunteers who helped us today. You are not only saving a school, but saving a community.
WE NEED VOLUNTEERS!
We have been given the “All Clear” to begin clean-up and removal of destroyed property of our school. We need volunteers! We will begin the clean-up, tomorrow, Thursday, June 6th, at 8:00 am.
Volunteers need to park in the gym parking lot as the road in front of the school will have dumpsters. Each volunteer will need to sign in when they come and sign out upon leaving the school. You will also sign a liability release form. Both actions are required before you enter the building.
We request that you wear long pants, rubber boots, gloves, and a mask. We are concerned for your safety in this endeavor. If you have any tools for clean-up such as shovels, brooms, squeegees, wheel barrows, etc. please consider bringing them to help out in the effort.
We also need boxes and/or plastic tubs to load books that were not affected by the water. If you have trailers that we may be able to haul items to storage, please consider sharing them.
If you are unable to come tomorrow, we will be working on this project for a while and you may come on other days. We desperately need your help.
Thank you and have a blessed evening.
WARRIOR PRIDE!!!
