August 30, 2008
Due to the projected path of Hurricane Gustav we feel that it is in the best interest of the residents to evacuate to Ollie Steel Burden Manor.  We will begin evacuating Saturday, August 30, 2008 in the morning.  This will allow us the time needed to get the residents settled and comfortable while waiting for everything to pass. 

We will be using this site to keep everyone updated.  Please check back for further information.
