"Hurricane Katrina: The Aftermath" will be presented at the Chesley Memorial Library on Tuesday, February 20, at 7:00 p.m.  Anyone interested in the continuing saga of the effects of Hurricane Katrina on the City of New Orleans and the surrounding area should plan to attend. Doug Chamberlin, Friend of the Chesley Memorial Library, made two trips to New Orleans, most recently January 20-27, 2007.  He will share his perspective on the impact of the storm.  It has been a year and a half, but those who think the work has been completed will see a different picture.  Some have returned, many to tiny FEMA trailers outside their homes, but there are thousands and thousands of homes that are still unlivable.  Come get a first-hand perspective of what has been done and the tremendous amount of work left that needs to be done.  The question "Can I help, even in some small way?" will be answered.
