Declared Disaster Zone!!

[LilMissDrift]

I'll kind of summarise the story for you guys.

Yesterday. (21 Dec 2006) Armidale was yet again Encumbered with a FREAK hailstorm. With SES working throughout the night, the towns still having trouble rebuilding.

The main exhibition Centre CRUMBLED under the weight of the hail, Families Lost their Homes, Cars written off, Accidents caused, and as u can imagine.. a lot of broken glass.

Im a local here, have lived here all my life - which in 11 days is 18 yrs - and I wasn't near as affected as a lot of the town, and being a small town girl. I want to get in there and HELP as much as I can. I wanna do fundraisers and things like that.. but I have no idea where to start. Can anyone help??




(myself being bogged on a MAIN ROAD in hail in my AU unable to get traction, luckily got help from locals - and escavators - to get out of the hail.. they dont teach ya that @ driving school)
