Know some one who needs a Place?

Hey Ya'll Are those of you down on the South End Of the State seeing some relief show up? We're certainly loading it and sending it out of Oxford. Ole Miss has sent out at least 3 big freight trucks each day Packed to the gills with bottled water, non-perishables And clothes. We've also got a lot of "refugees" here in town. The Churches have all "pooled" resources to open up homes To those who need a place. Oxford is jam packed with those "game weekend condos" That the richer families keep here just so they won't have To bother with hotels for home games. Well, between the Churches and the University 30 of them now have families from down on the coast And we've got a "clearing house" list of others for folks Who are offering a "place to stay." Some of them furnished yet empty condos/apartments Others are in homes that have extra rooms. If ya'll know of anyone there who might be interested Have them contact Ole Miss Dean of Students - (Thomas J. (Sparky) Reardon Ph.D 422 Union (662) 915-7248 or - Associate Dean of Students Lori A Wolff Ph.D., J.D. 401 Union (662) 915-1387 ) Or one of the larger churches here. The 1st Baptists (800 Van Buren, Oxford, MS 38655, Downtown, 662-234-3515) Have the largest kitchen facilities So they are running the "Meals for Displaced" here, And the University United Methodist Church- (424 South 10th Street, Oxford, MS 38655, 662-234-5278) http://www.gbgm-umc.org/ouumc/ is pairing up Local families with people Needing a place and/or clothing. Hope that each day gets better and better For those of you hit by Katrina! Best Wishes- Dx
