SEVERE WEATHER POLICYDuring severe weather – or the consequences of severe weather – it is possible we may have to cancel a previously scheduled distribution. We highly recommend neighbors call our Midway Project number the morning of scheduled distributions on days when the weather is severe and/or travel is difficult before heading over to Hancock to see if we have cancelled for the day. We will always announce cancellations no later than 10am on distribution day.
Not just us… You too!
