SEVERE WEATHER CHECK-IN

#1 Postby GalvestonDuck » Fri Jul 08, 2005 3:38 pm

Hey, gang!

A request from the staff:
If you would please (and feel comfortable doing so), could you PM your contact information (any of the following: cell #, home #, work #, and/or a # where you can be reached if you evacuate) to me (GalvestonDuck) or to Southerngale? That way, in the event that we don't hear from you for a while after the storm, we can make attempts to reach you and get updates on how you're doing to let the rest of the S2K family know. Your information will remain confidential.

Furthermore, if you guys could post here and let us know when you're checking out (even if you don't send in your information) and then check back in when you can. That way, we don't all worry and wonder.

Stay safe, stay prepared, and stay in touch! :) We care about you.

Thanks!
The Storm2K Staff

We will be leaving Destin around 4AM tomorrow. The hotel we are staying at doesn't have internet connection, so I will check in when we get back with updates on our area (if we have power). Everyone be safe!
