Hi everyone! I am elated at the response of the RV industry to our pleas for help for Katrina victims and the RV parks serving them as hosts. I've been answering emails all night. Here are some of what people are saying:

Dianne from www.gocampin.net (who is helping us contact rv parks)

Do you want me to contact just Louisiana ones, or Mississippi ones too?
Or do I wait until you give me the word if you were able to get ahold of the campground owner assoc. there, before I write anyone?
What form were you talking about for them to use?
Just guide me slightly as to what to do, and I'll get to work. After all the late night at the computer answering e-mails, I can e-mail with the best of them <big grin> It's the least I can do from here, if needed.

Hi Matt,
I'm a C.O.T. member and would like to donate to the relief store. My product
is the Align-Quik Hitching Guides. They sell for $19.95/set + $5.00
shipping. I could send a carton to be sold in the online store, but I
thought it would make more sense to offer to drop-ship. Just forward the
orders and I'll send them out with my regular orders. I'll cover the postage
on the first several, Info and images are at: www.HitchingGuides.com

HI Matt,
I am a member of the Circle of Trust with Anne.
I am collecting donations at the rallies for Anne. Collected $900 at RVing Women last week some of which will be matched. So that will help. And I'll do the same at Country Coach next week and Monaco the following week. And I donated 5% of my sales as well. So I'm not going to put any products up since I'm donating this way instead.

Thank you!

Phone: (574) 535-2100
www.keystone-camping.com

Mike Hearn at www.keystone-camping.com got in touch with one of his members in Baton Rouge, who has graciously offered to help deliver products that arrive. This man, Bobby Gilly, is really outdoing himself. He is helping with the pre-natal and pediatric situation in Baton Rouge – babies keep coming, in spite of it all, and now that they have stabilized his situation, he is already prepared to help us with this additional task. We hope that some of the unused baby items donated locally to our park can be sent back down with him and utilized by his volunteers and evacuees there. I had called Escapees, to see if they had a non-profit banking situation, to which we could donate our funds as time goes on, and be assured that our contributions would be spent within the RV community. They did not, but Cathie Carr was very kind, very upbeat, and offered Escapees’ support of our efforts and praised the hard work of the Circle of Trust RV Family and the many other companies and individuals who are contacting us to help. Escapees are making wonderful efforts of their own, and it’s good to know that we are all working toward the same goals. We are not alone

Hi Guys (Dawn and Mark)

Please let us know what we can do that will have tangible impact in the RV parks of Katrina ravaged areas. We will mobilize from here to help.

Much love to you both
