Attention Texas Mil Bloggers and Readers

Austin/Travis County is setting up shelters right now. There is a huge need for donations to make this work. The City of Austin is begining its efforts tommorow:

The City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department will staff a Contribution Center at Motorola, 3501 Ed Bluestein Blvd. (Map) The Center will be open for donations from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 3, through Friday, Sept. 9. Donation requests include monetary donations, cots, air matresses, sleeping bags, sheets, blankets, towels and wash cloths.

There is also a need for volunteers. Spread the word.
