In a continued effort to address the recovery needs of the citizens, Nowata County is offering a community assistance resource center open today (Friday, June 7) and tomorrow/Saturday at the Nowata County Fair Building. The veteran’s administration and other community resources will be there. Emergency Director Laurie Summers says the county has shovels, rakes, and cleanup kits for citizens, and the Red Cross could have resources to share as well.

It's open today from 9am to 1pm, and tomorrow/Sat from 9am to 3pm. Residents affected by the storms are encouraged to fill out a damage survey which makes it possible for Nowata County to document damage and potentially receive state and federal aid. For the survey, click on this link.
