Those seeking shelter as a result of last week’s inclement weather have been given a couple more options.
That’s because Henry County has partnered with American Red Cross to open a Disaster Relief Shelter at Locust Grove Recreation Center, which began on Monday, January 16.

Mobile showers, bathrooms, washers and dryers have been secured for those that need them. Verizon’s Disaster Response team has also been secured to provide a Wireless Emergency Communication Center that will support additional Wi-Fi and charging stations.

To assist those needing a hot meal, the Salvation Army has established a mobile kitchen for the Indian Creek Mobile Home Community for up to two meals per day for those with no power due to the inclement weather.

Locust Grove Recreation Center is located at 10 Cleveland Street in Locust Grove.

For questions or information, contact the Red Cross at 1-800-Red-Cross or the Henry County Emergency Management Agency at 770-288-7894.
