Help build a road washed out by the Cruso Flood

My name is Chris Scott. I have friends and family that were displaced by the Cruso flood on 8/16. Everyone is safe and sound but there are several families that are still unable to leave their homes in their vehicles.

As a result of the flash flood, the main bridge to Wagon Wheel Acres was completely washed away when a trailer slammed into it and sent it down the river (we found parts of it about 3/4 mile downstream). Additionally, the secondary way out via the road to the Horse Cove Bridge was completely washed out (as seen in the photo) and the road known as "Stress Hill" suffered damage as well.

I am soliciting donations for the purchase of a culvert and stone to fill in the part of the road that was washed out and the lower road near the Horse Cove Bridge. Once these roads are repaired the families stuck on the mountain will be able to cross the river and leave in there vehicles.

This photo shows where the Wagon Wheel Acres Bridge used to be.

 

Here is the washed out part of Horse Cove Road, a.k.a. "Stress Hill".

 

And here is the part of the road that needs to be repaired to gain access to Horse Cove Road.
