Flood Resources
Our hearts go out to all those up and down the Missouri River valley rebuilding from the catastrophic flood of 2019, who are experiencing devastation to their families, homes, farmlands, properties, businesses and other enterprises. Some are also dealing with severe storm and tornado damage.
Times of extreme weather and flooding like this highlight the need for increased knowledge and understanding of our river systems by those that live along this important river valley.
We are often posting updates and articles on our facebook page. Here are some additional river resources you can use to stay on top of the situation. Click here for the full list!

Reduce plastic bag waste AND support River Relief at Lucky's Market!
Bring your own shopping bags (BYOB)
and turn them into cash for River Relief!
Through November 9 at

They saw a LOT of plastic shopping bags along the way, and they decided one thing they could do is FILL all those stupid bags with other river trash they found and dispose of it properly!
But here's a better idea...NEVER TAKE THOSE BAGS IN THE FIRST PLACE!
