Reply to Volunteers needed for sandbagging - March 13

You might be seeing these notices after Saturday morning, but if you want to help I would still suggest calling - these efferts might be going on for many days:



Lockhouse 6 Needs Your Help! -
Volunteers needed Saturday


In preparation for the flood, which is expected to crest near Lockhouse 6 on Sunday, the C&O Canal Trust will sandbag the lockhouse beginning at noon this Saturday, March 13th. Materials and equipment will be provided, though additional wheelbarrows would be welcomed. Assistance may also be required to move furnishings associated with the Trust's Canal Quarters program.


Please keep in mind, parking at this location is very limited.


If you have specific questions, please contact Matthew Logan at 301-512-7027 or logan@canaltrust.org.
