A hearty thank you from Delhi Dam victims

All of us at Hawkers Resort (located below the Delhi Dam and Rocky Nook) would like to thank everyone who came to our aid in the days following the flood.

Thanks also to the Red Cross, Anamosa Walmart, Manchester Fareway, Norby's, Deli Express, Valley Disaster Relief in Des Moines and Neighbors Across the Land.

Also, we'd like to recognize Joe Koopmann and Harter Septic Services for pumping out the valley, Shawn Reth and Lance Lange for the work with their heavy equipment and Randy and Scott Harbach for all the cleanup and hauling. Scott was the first one here after the flood, and it was greatly appreciated.

And last, but certainly not least, thanks to the Lake Delhi Recreation Association for sending help and assistance our way, bringing government officials to our area and including us in your communications.

This was a terrible tragedy that we hope and pray will never be repeated.
