Mud and Helpers Stem Tide of Flood at Point of Rocks
Basil Whittaker, co-owner of B&B Grocery, battled several inches of oil and mud after high water flooded the store in Point of Rocks. Neighbors and Coca Cola volunteers moved stock, loaded trucks, and aided cleanup as cooler units and a 700-pound cooler were displaced. North American Housing Corp donated materials and food aid funded the Red Cross shelter, which remained busy despite freezing temps.
