This information came to me from someone that lives in the area and is doing my work for me in getting information. Please understand we have a dire need for new quilts but no baby quilts right now.
'OK,
I visited the fire station in Leavenworth today, Chelan County Fire
District 3, and here is the information they gave me. Chelan County
District 3, 4, and 9 are involved in the Chiwaukum Creek/Leavenworth
area fire fighting, in addition to numerous
others from Kennewick, Vashon Island, Seattle, Monroe, the Forest
Service, Bureau of Land Management, Natural Resourses and State
Mobilization. Also there are 110 National Guardsmen here, with an
additional 220 Guardsmen currently in training to be dispatched here.
Personally, I have also seen crews from Oregon and Montana. It appears
there are too many to mention. The staff I spoke with in Leavenworth
said that Pateros is in dire need of generosity and donations of all
kinds. They (Pateros) have two law enforcement officers that lost their
homes in the fire.'
The address to mail them to is:
Jean Kester
18740 Ivan Street SW
Rochester, WA 98579
