This morning, I just have to shout out to a few people who
have been standing with me during this Convi-19 crisis. They have stepped up
their support with food, water, visits, transportation, medical services, and
help for our seniors.
Chief Anthony Morgan and the Mount Rainier Police Department
Caroly Samuel King
William "Lee" Miles
Patricia Page
Wanda Wheatley
Diane Dunsmore
Ernest Wheeler
Robin Bliss
Jack Priestley and the CERT Team
Dr. George Askew
Ms. Gloria Brown
These are the times when THANK YOU just does not seem
adequate, but it is all I can offer. Each of you ROCK in my book, and I know
those that you helped and are helping are forever grateful!
The CERT Team is still accepting food.
Lisa Lincoln and her team at CAFE are setting up a food
pantry in the Queen Manor Apartments area. Here is what Lisa had to say:
CAFE is working to set up a food pantry for those in need.
We had hoped to have it outside so people could visit it 24/7, but understand
insurance concerns. So, we will be at the door pantry (not letting anyone in,
but they can see inside and make requests) located at CAFE in Queens Manor. We
see this as a partnership: people in need from this community could come to
CAFE between 5 and 6:30pm on Mondays and Fridays. IF we ever have unserved
meals, we can donate to CERT. IF CERT has extra donations, we can add them to
our pantry.
I will be posting more information as it becomes available.
THANK YOU, Lisa and the team.
As a long-time resident of Mount Rainier and a homeowner, it is important to me that municipal government be inclusive of all of its residents.
It is equally important that information be communicated through all possible channel so that residents can get involved.
It is also important for residents to volunteer and serve on committees, commissions, boards and task forces.
I truly believe that municipal government is the government closes to the people, and as such should be easily accessible.
This BLOG is another effort to reach out to the residents of Mount Rainier.
