Just got off the phone with Tyler A. '13 who has been carrying out relief efforts over the past 48 hours and distributed a bunch of the BTHO Harvey donated goods. He said there is urgent need for BBQ or some other type of warm food OR meat they can grill out there to support the first responders. They are very worn out and moral and energy is low out there in some of the areas in SE Texas.

Please contact Tyler at 979-219-6251 if you or your group can meet that need.

If you head that way, they need large diapers and formula in addition to the other common goods that are being requested.

If they can go to the staging area at Orange Expo Center, the Cajun Gravy is there. I know they are there today and this article said yesterday they were too, so maybe they will be there a while.

They've been posting updates as well: https://www.facebook.com/CajunGravy/

I'm out running a couple of other pods, with our group housed at the West Orange high school.

There have been several civilian groups feeding us, other first responders, and locals. The hospitality from them has been amazing, specifically the group from St Margaret Mary Men's Club.

Thank you!

Vidor is doing ok, but hot meals are never going to be turned down by any of us. Chipotle is at the CD this morning, and fleet cooked at the pd. I don't know if lunch is lined up
