WHAT
With the downturn in the economy and the devastating flood in 2008, many businesses would like you to be aware of their personal and excellent service. They need the support of customers like you to continue their indispensable value to the community. The impact to the flooded businesses alone is estimated to be $2.57 billion with nearly 2,000 jobs lost.
