Website update 3/27/07:
As many of you know, Pathfinder has been blessed to be able
to use the Quonset tents provided by the City of Waveland which
we use as a bunkhouse and office/classroom. Unfortunately,
the climate has not been very friendly to the floor systems
under the tents. We have had an increasing problem with mold
and mildew and physical deterioration of the wood flooring.
It is amazing how quickly the bunk houses went up. Each has
heating and air-conditioning and will sleep 10 volunteers.
They will be named Joshua, Caleb and Esther. We will be
modifying the bunks to make them two high this next week.
Then we will paint the outside .... more pictures to come.
We should have the final inspection from the city the first
of the week.
-----------------------------------
Per cb conversation with Charlie 9/12, real need right now
is software (OS and office). CB to mail. Charlie will let us
know when he's ready for more machine. Hopes to open internet
cafe but doesn't yet have facility.
Per CB conversation with Rev Charlie week of 8/7: Accepting
computers with USB ports, internal modems, and operating
software. Also need office suite software. Laptops at a premium
for people living in FEMA trailers. Should be Windows 98 or later
and iMac or later for Apples.

Mission:
1. Building/supply PODs/storage buildings free of charge to FEMA
trailer residents
2. Re-construction assistance - providing volunteers and materials
where and when available.
3. Salvage yard available for material - both supply and donations
4. Advocacy assistance for Hancock Couny residents for assistance
with FEMA claims, grant applications, and material procurement.
5. Provide a computer training classes for Hancock County residents
(We also provide some of the class graduates computers to take home
dependent on computer donations to Pathfinder - we do have IT people
who come down as volunteers to set up those computers)
6. Provide computer work stations onsite for residents so they can
access the internet and email.
NEWS:
- COMPUTER NETWORK/TRAINING
- We are in the process of setting up a networked set of
computers onsite for training people how to use computers.
All of those computers will have wireless internet connections.
Once trained the individuals will be sent home with a complete
computer setup for themselves. We have a group of IT specialists
who come down and go thru used computers donated to make them
"usable" even if only for sending/receiving email. The entire
operation is being set up in an air condition tent quanset hut
donated by the City of Waveland.
- We are also soliciting grants for the economically deprived
section of town called Middletown (black section of town). There
will be a town meeting this Saturday (6/17) at 3pm here at the
church for everyone in that section of town. We went door to door
\to invite each and every one of the residents to the meeting.
There is currently a $35,000 grant for the park in that area. We
have an agreement to purchase a half city block in the commercial
district there in order to set up a grocery store, civic center,
laundry and possible a beauty salon.
- We have 30 volunteers (sent to me from the City of Waveland)
going over to this section of town to pick up trash. And the City
of Waveland is going to send trucks to, finally, pick up the storm
debris from that section of town. We had lunch yesterday with the
Mayor of Waveland and he personally assured us that that was going
to happen.

Once trained the individuals will be sent home with a complete
computer setup for themselves. We have a group of IT specialists
who come down and go thru used computers donated to make them
"usable" even if only for sending/receiving email. The entire
operation is being set up in an air condition tent quanset hut
donated by the City of Waveland.
- We are also soliciting grants for the economically deprived
section of town called Middletown (black section of town). There
will be a town meeting this Saturday (6/17) at 3pm here at the
church for everyone in that section of town. We went door to door
\to invite each and every one of the residents to the meeting.
There is currently a $35,000 grant for the park in that area. We
have an agreement to purchase a half city block in the commercial
district there in order to set up a grocery store, civic center,
laundry and possible a beauty salon.
- We have 30 volunteers (sent to me from the City of Waveland)
going over to this section of town to pick up trash. And the City
of Waveland is going to send trucks to, finally, pick up the storm
debris from that section of town. We had lunch yesterday with the

Website update 3/27/07:
As many of you know, Pathfinder has been blessed to be able
to use the Quonset tents provided by the City of Waveland which
we use as a bunkhouse and office/classroom. Unfortunately,
the climate has not been very friendly to the floor systems
under the tents. We have had an increasing problem with mold
and mildew and physical deterioration of the wood flooring.
It is amazing how quickly the bunk houses went up. Each has
heating and air-conditioning and will sleep 10 volunteers.
They will be named Joshua, Caleb and Esther. We will be
modifying the bunks to make them two high this next week.
Then we will paint the outside .... more pictures to come.
We should have the final inspection from the city the first
of the week.

3. Salvage yard available for material - both supply and donations
4. Advocacy assistance for Hancock Couny residents for assistance with FEMA claims, grant applications, and material procurement.
5. Provide a computer training classes for Hancock County residents
(We also provide some of the class graduates computers to take home dependent on computer donations to Pathfinder - we do have IT people who come down as volunteers to set up those computers)
6. Provide computer work stations onsite for residents so they can access the internet and email.
NEWS:
- COMPUTER NETWORK/TRAINING
- We are in the process of setting up a networked set of computers onsite for training people how to use computers. All of those computers will have wireless internet connections. Once trained the individuals will be sent home with a complete computer setup for themselves. We have a group of IT specialists who come down and go thru used computers donated to make them "usable" even if only for sending/receiving email. The entire operation is being set up in an air condition tent quanset hut donated by the City of Waveland.
- We are also soliciting grants for the economically deprived section of town called Middletown (black section of town). There will be a town meeting this Saturday (6/17) at 3pm here at the church for everyone in that section of town. We went door to door to invite each and every one of the residents to the meeting. There is currently a $35,000 grant for the park in that area. We have an agreement to purchase a half city block in the commercial district there in order to set up a grocery store, civic center, laundry and possible a beauty salon.
- We have 30 volunteers (sent to me from the City of Waveland) going over to this section of town to pick up trash. And the City of Waveland is going to send trucks to, finally, pick up the storm debris from that section of town. We had lunch yesterday with the Mayor of Waveland and he personally assured us that that was going to happen. -> Per CB conversation with Rev Charlie week of 8/7: Accepting computers with USB ports, internal modems, and operating software. Also need office suite software. Laptops at a premium for people living in FEMA trailers. Should be Windows 98 or later and iMac or later for Apples.
