This was posted by the West Kingdom's disaster coordinator this 
morning: 

'The Disaster Coordinator for the Caid Kingdom is totally on all 
this. She has said all people are accounted for and are in safety at 
this point. Damage assessment has not been able to be done for 
obvious reasons. Once things settle and more is known, she will post 
needs for the Scadians in her area. For some needs may be enormous 
and a disaster relief call will be made thru the Kingdom 
Coordinators. Right now she is asking folks to donate to Red Cross or 
other agencies which take care of the basic needs. As we learned from 
Katrina, once they can begin recovery, needs will vary and gift cards 
or SCA supplies will be needed.

During Katrina, many peerages lost valuable books or equipment and 
one thing lost that was unreplaceable were their scrolls. Many 
Scripes across the country helped replace scrolls. Other seemingly 
simple things were basic garb and kit supplies. Think of how much we 
cherish our SCA closet and what's in there... How it connects us to 
our family. These are the things which will be missed and needed as 
we know damage for each Scadian involved.

Also, many hands were used to help in rebuilding the Gulf Wars site, 
so that too may be called upon later.

For the moment, she has requested prayers and to keep them in your 
thoughts.'

Hearing that everyone is safe and accounted for is DEFINITELY a good 
thing! I know there has been an outpouring of support from the SCA 
community with offers of places for the evacuees to stay and other 
means of support. I have not heard any official news on the Potrero 
War site, but I believe it may have been in harms way - we'll have to 
see how things pan out. 

In Service (albeit from the West),
