In Case Of Emergency, Read Blog

Thanks to Sara Estes Cohen’s Twitter feed I found out about a new group in New Orleans, Evacuteer.org, that is recruiting volunteers to help in the event of an emergency evacuation of the city (an eventuality whose chances increased today with the announcement by Mayor Mitch Landrieu that he might order a full evacuation before a Category 2 hurricane.)

According to its website, Evacuteer.org was launched on June 2, 2009 as an organization of New Orleans citizens committed to helping execute the new City Assisted Evacuation Plan.
