Bernville, PA flood it started to rain on Tuesday and it poured - by Wednesday things went real bad....  AC4H was hands on evacuating horses, livestock, small animals and people.  Here are some of the pictures and videos that I took so you can see what we have been doing the last couple of days....  It's kept us very busy. Route 183 is still closed, we will be closed for appointments Saturday 9-10 we still have a lot of work to do to get things back to semi-normal.  Thank God no lives were lost.  So this is what we have been up to the last couple of days or at least some snap shots of it... 

 Any tax deductible donations you would like to send to help with our efforts are very much appreciated!  Thank you for your patience while we were dealing with the flood and helping the community.

This was the neighbors pasture as it started to flood, the water came up so fast that in 45 minutes it was completely under water.

Other neighbors house literally overcome by the flood. A horse was evacuated first from this property.

  This is the permanent resident stalls, dry lot and grazing pasture which became flooded very quickly. Water has now receded back past the fence line/dry lot area but grazing area is still flooeded.

Stalls became rivers - they were quickly stripped and horses evacuated.
