Just got off the phone with Vickey a few minutes ago to check about the flooding situation and see if they needed some help getting things back in order. Since most everything (including the bar) was moved off the first floor, she stated that help would be appreciated tomorrow to clean and put things back.
If you are able to help tomorrow Saturday 09-10-11 starting around 11 am please call Vickey at 717-834-6789.
She stated that Sayway, Link & Ebarb were instrumental in helping get things moved and prepped for the rising waters. Kudos!

Including this info and pics:
1381413815 Taken earlier tonight. They are expecting close to three more feet of water, though the latest projections show a possibility the river could crest sooner, and a little lower, than expected.
Pat and Vicky got everything off the first floor that could be moved. At the time of these photos, even though water was up on the doors a little, it was still dry inside on the first floor. Doubtful the doors are that well sealed that they will keep it dry as it gets higher.
Two or three SOBOS there. They are pretty much stuck in town unless they want to take a pretty long road walk. The creek as you enter downtown from the south is flooded and so is the "subway" and the bridge heading out of town to the north.
PLEASE HELP... I have visited the Doyle a few times and each time Pat and Vickey have been great! It is a very well known stop along the AT and they have helped out many hikers, many times. It is time to give back.
No experience needed. Strong back and weak minds preferred. ;)
FYI - It may take some creative driving to get there if the bridge in is still closed.
You can call Vickey for details if planning on helping.
Thanks! :)
See you tomorrow at the Doyle.
