The Florida Keys are teaming up to provide recovery assistance to The
Bahamas, said a statement on the City of Key West Facebook page which continues:
"Marathon City Manager Chuck Lindsey and city Manager Jim Scholl
have coordinated with Bahamian Defense Force Commander Bethel to
provide some assistance. The Bahamian Defense Force has been docked in
Key West Harbor to stay out of the path of Hurricane Matthew. We are
currently collecting cases of bottled water as well as diapers for the
ships to take back to The Bahamas when they return. Anyone wishing to
help should drop the items at the Palm Avenue Public Works facility in
Key West, located between Stedman's Boat Yard and the entrance to Trumbo
Point. Just pull in near the old bus bays. We are collecting the goods
until 8 pm tonight, and tomorrow from 7 am until 4 pm.
REMEMBER: Cases
of bottled water and diapers ONLY!
Thank you! Let's do what we can to aid our sister islanders!"
