Grand Forks Part II
-
were protected at 41 ft. The city of Moorhead is calling for 1 continuous dike from Horn Park(Under I94 Bridge) to 40th Ave. @40 Ft.
We filled around 25,000 sandbags at Sand Station 11 across the street from my house. My neighbor needs help BAD, so if anyone wants to come to Station 11 (37th Ave S & Riverview Circle) we Will be going from 8am to 8pm.

yes. I will post pictures of the bracing tomorrow. we need to melt all the ice behind the dike (huge torch pic) so we can thaw the ground and dig for our sump holes. I bought 2 of the last few rolls of plastic we had at home depot. We should be done tomorrow completely. -
Man that would suck if Oak Grove got flooded again with all the walls they have installed. Last time, the clay dike built by the city broke and not the massive sandbag wall built by us students. I think they still have to put up a dike on South Terrace so we'll see what happens...

I'll be out throwing bags around all day tomorrow, and whenever I get a chance between school and work until whenever they stop.On another note: If anyone has any extra drain plugs, we need a bunch for our house and my grandma's house.
Try Fargo Water 237-0222 or Northern Waterworks.
They also have expandable balls (muni balls) to plug the sewer lines too, but then you cannot use water. -
