OPA teams, officials, friends and sponsors:

It has been a tough week for many people in the areas affected by the hurricane. A number of our OPA families have had devastating damage to their homes. While insurance covers some, deductibles and items not covered will add up quickly.

I propose we set up a recovery fund for any OPA member who is in need of assistance.

All proceeds will be split evenly between any member who has lost their home or had catastrophic damage.

It certainly can't heal all the pain they have suffered, but they are family and need our support.

Rich, put the details together, let me know what we can do. I have lots of stuff I can donate,as well as you can count on a check. Cash will probably do more good than stuff.Im' in for one or both. Does any one know what Smittys situtation is. Its pay back time. George

My understanding is Smitty had 6' water in first floor.

Thanks for stepping up George, please pass the word, response has been light.

Check in mail this am.
Not much.....dinner or a couple pair of jeans $

This is a great idea put forth by the classiest racing team out there! EVERYONE who has raced in OPA should donate...its the people who were hit the hardest (Smitty and the rest of the Jersey Boyz) who made the racing possible.

Thanks guy's , very thoughtful of everyone hence why Smitty and everybody puts so much time into OPA. You all know we love you all to death right? God Bless and Thank You.
