Surveillance video released through records request shows disturbance in the water
One of my Crow relatives asked me to post information on how to donate to the Crow Tribe flood disaster relief fund. She and family members have been busy driving in bad road conditions to deliver food and water to people effected by flood waters of the Little Big Horn River and all surrounding creeks on the Crow Reservation.
Here’s a few items people need: water, household items, baby items. Non-/perishable food items are being accepted at Little Bighorn College at Crow Agency. Monetary donations are also needed. Here is the address: “Crow Tribe Disaster Relief Fund,” First Interstate Bank, 402 North Center Ave., Hardin, MT. 59034. For more information call 406-665-3822.
The latest Associated Press report on Monday notes:
“Forecasters say another 3 inches of rain may have fallen in flooded areas of Montana but it’s expected to taper off today. More rain fell Sunday on already soaked communities, adding to more than a week of floods that brought as much as 8 inches to central and eastern parts the state.
On Sunday, Montana’s governor ordered more National Guard troops to the town of Roundup to join the anti-flood effort and to provide unarmed security checkpoints.
More than four dozen guardsmen already have been helping on the Crow Reservation, which has been inundated by heavy flooding. And the only road leading into the town has been opened.
States downstream along the bloated Missouri River are getting prepared for floods, strengthening levees and placing sandbags ahead of the release of waters from dams and reservoirs.”
Prayers and donations are appreciated.
