Back in August of 2011 the area was hit by Hurricane Irene. The area received extensive damage from the storm but luckily our station only received some minor damage. However one week later we were then hit by a F1 tornado which clipped the corner of our building causing some more significant damage. After tons of paperwork, studies, applications, and bids we are finally able to make repairs to our station. Over the next few weeks the building will be completed and the work on the drainage will start. Thanks for everyone's support during the past year and a half.
