Over 20 volunteers met at Parkview Church on the morning of Oct. 13 to help neighbors clean up debris a day after a 115-mph EF2 tornado touched down in the B-Section of Palm Coast.
Parkview Church members were joined by volunteers from other churches in the community and from Flagler Volunteer Services.
American Red Cross Disaster Relief Services sent two teams to the area to do a detailed damage assessment and hand out gloves, bags, tarps, water and other supplies to residents.
Parkview Church Operations Pastor Barry Peters organized the volunteer crews.
Ryan Simpson, Flagler County’s Emergency Management manager, spoke to volunteers outside the church.
“We came to see how we can support the church and all our community partners,” he said. “It seems like the damage was very isolated, so we’re very blessed about that.”
