Family in Waveland MS.

In October 2005 a group of volunteers from Bloomington Indiana left the comfort of their homes and worked in Waveland MS. My wife Spring (aka Momma KaBoom) was one of those wonderful family members that worked in the New Waveland Café. Upon her return we made plans to return to Waveland and work in the Café. Unfortunately it had left for New Orleans before we arrived. We joined them in Chalmette (New Orleans) and helped with the building of that Kitchen (Emergency Communities). The Family was asked to come back to Waveland and so we did. To date we have been working in Hancock County since December 11 2005. Our efforts still continue as we have evolved into a community center. See our progress at: http://web-publishing.org/katrinarecovery/index.php

Or View our Bloomington Indiana website for the Family:http://web-publishing.org/Bloomingtontribe/index.php Read about our progress, look at our pictures, join the sites and post your comments, but above all be active. It will be several years before this is all over with.

Well, first I'd like to apologize for taking so long to update, but due to heat and Nationals, we have been short handed and extremely busy, with major shifts happening...

...All for the good...

We are beginning a two week break...Before we move into our new building...
We will still be in Hancock county, but in Bay St. Louis, At St. Augustine’s retreat...
We will have a new Vulcan kitchen, an auditorium, and dorms...
We have also acquired a bus to put together the mobile community kitchen, and refurbished Vulcan gear for that...We really could use some Hard Working, Family Minded People come create the community center that we will be leaving for Hancock county...
It is so beautiful there...With lots of grass, and Beautiful trees, including a small orchard...
It has been such a blessing to see people asking about us online, that we're not forgotten...
Anyone interested in joining in the efforts, give us a call: 228-342-8834...
...It would do my heart good to see some 'old friends'...HINT-HINT......
