Re: OSS racers helping out

This is an awesome effort from such a great group of people. The people of Biloxi are very grateful for the kindness of so many. During such a great tragedy the true character of so many is often discovered. I am proud to be apart of such an incredible organization. I only wish all could see personally the devastation of my beautiful city. Only then could you realize the true gratitude for your assistance in such a horrible time in Biloxi's history.

Re: OSS racers helping out

The work being done by the OSS family out there is something very unique and special.
The Page Motorsports rig and trailer is being used as a missing persons headquarters for the Harrison County Coroner/ Sheriff dept. and also supporting countless firefighters there on search and rescue duty. It is an overwhelming sight ... mile after mile after mile of complete devastation and complete need.. These guys keep plugging away and the results are far greater than one could ever imagine. The items being donated by the OSS teams and family are reaching the hands of the survivors who cannot make it to the local area Red Cross or Salvation Army distribution centers. Pockets of survivors are still being found without aid along the route from Biloxi to the western areas of Harrison County . Steve and crew and the Dekalb County Ga. SAR teams are seeing that their immediate needs are met along with the needs of the SAR teams in these areas. Most everything is in short supply from Pensacola west. Items being brought in daily are distributed daily while urgent calls for more are nonstop.

I urge anyone that has not had an opportunity to lend support or wishes to further their support to contact OSS and and see what they may need to continue to provide what little comfort they can to an area that is beyond description.

I can be reached at 407 468 2279 and can make inquiries also if you wish .

I am more than willing to provide pickup and delivery, just call your order into a location along the way and I'll grab it and get in Steve's hands.
