Particpants invited to tornado recovery event

eparizo — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 12:00:26 +0000

Grace Lutheran Church West Springfield invites the local community to participate in an important tornado recovery event.

Raising Hope Together, the greater West Springfield long-term recovery group, is sponsoring Stronger Than A Tornado II, a cleanup and rebuilding event, taking place Saturday, April 28, 2012, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

The help of as many skilled and non-skilled participants is needed for debris removal and cleanup, as well as to repair, rebuild and stabilize homes and neighborhoods in West Springfield. Even though it’s been nearly a year since the tornado, much work is left to be done.

To learn more, call 413-734-HOPE (4673).
