Volunteers Needed to Help with Sandbags in Waynedale

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): City of Fort Wayne Officials are looking for volunteers to help with sandbagging to raise the height of the levee in the Waynedale neighborhood of Bradbury/Prairie Grove/Broadripple. They say the Fairfield Ditch is creeping over the levee.

Work will begin about 7:00 a.m. Thursday, and should be complete by noon. Volunteers should have gloves and may want to wear boots.

Residents can access the area by turning north from Lower Huntington Road onto Bradbury. The area that will be sandbagged is about 5 blocks north of Lower Huntington Road.
