Things are getting back to normal on Cat. Phones are still out in places, but power has been fully restored, although it flakes out sometimes.
Look for them to get DSL sometime soon. They were stringing the optical cables when Irene hit.
Lots of roofs still need repair, but it's getting done.
New Bight Harbor is open and G+G is delivering, as is the Mail Boat.

Cat Island took a direct hit from Hurricane Irene. We are working on bringing relief supplies to Cat Island via aircraft or boat. We need donations and volunteers to help. PS. My mother lives on the island and that's why I got the idea to do this.
Donations and Volunteers
If you can help with this effort, please contact me below.
** Apparently getting Water to Cat Island is a Priority, due to contamination by sea water of existing supplies, and damage to the Reverse Osmosis plant **
