This report came through the new Yahoo group for Camp Casey Alumni. It pretty much speaks for itself.
Hurricane Relief - Katrina-Refugees: Veterans For Peace Road Trip
Where did the food go? What about the Medical supplies? How about all the water that was never sucked up in the 109 degree heat of Camp Casey?
It got loaded up by the team and members of the Veterans For Peace Chapter 116, Mendocino County, http://www.vfproadtrips.org and hauled out with Annie and Buddy Spell of the Louisiana Activist Network, Commanding the way to as close as Camp Casey could get to the catastrophe in Louisiana.
Alberto signed on the tour in Austin and we were joined by Alex and Ella of Minnesota who spent a lot of time at Camp Casey the past month.
We are here, CAMP CASEY is alive, the food is cooking, and we are handing out supplies to the citizens of the community. We need help. Louisiana Activist Network and the VFP Chapter 116 are the only ones here in Covington.
We are in the Same Camp, Different Ditch 96 degrees today
The ditch is at:
Reverend Peter Atkins Park in Covington. Corner of 28th and Tyler in Covington. Louisiana
Where we can take mail: 124 E 14th Street, Covington, LA 70433
The Mendocino, CA Chapter (#116) of Veterans for Peace has joined the Louisiana Activist Network on the corner of Tyler and 28th Street in Covington, LA where we have opened up a soup kitchen and medical station in a public park.
THERE IS NO GOVERNMENT HERE!
THE LOUISIANA NATIONAL GUARD IS NOT HERE. ONLY WE ARE HERE AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS COMMUNITY ARE IN DISTRESS.
We need, immediately, the following:
WATER, WATER, WATER ice chests with ice baby supplies (diapers, formula, ointments) low fat powdered milk canned foods fresh fruit gasoline additional generators shelter flash lights portable toilets
Deliveries to: 124 E 14th Street, Covington, LA 70433
We, the veterans and activists of Camp Casey are here to stay.
Financial donations are useless under these circumstances. This is anarchy. We need basic supplies ASAP!
GEORGE BUSH HAS LET THESE PEOPLE DOWN!
IT'S UP TO YOU AND US!
