Just as the headlines about flood recovery are slowly fading, so the efforts of volunteers engaged in flood relief are fading from our memories. To prevent this from happening, Sarah Dyck, PEIA Disaster Recovery Coordinator, contacted Shirley Pantini to see if First Presbyterian Church in Marion would be interested in preparing a lunch for the staff and volunteers from the Community Recovery Center in Cedar Rapids. FPC agreed to help and they easily raised the needed funds. Shirley said 35 people turned out to put together 85 boxed meals in 50 minutes. "People who don't normally participate, helped with this project because it was within their abilities. Everyone wants to be able to work on flood relief but not everyone can muck or do construction work." What feedback did they hear from those who were served lunch? One volunteer from out of state said, "I love the people of Iowa but I don't love the smells."
