If they're currently open, then I doubt they had any water damage. I hope for TPA's sake, that's the case and they'll be able to hold their convention without issue.

From personal experience, I just know with major flooding like this, there's no way a business that sustained any significant damage could be open for business in 3 months! We have buildings in our downtown area that are still going through the clean-up phase after they were flooded out almost two years ago.

I totally understand....as a native New Orleanian whose parents lost everything in Katrina, I totally understand about some flooding.

But yes it will be interesting to see if they are up and ready for their Convention. AOII has our Leadership Institute there at the end of June this year. Since that hotel is close to our Headquarters we also use it. It's very nice and close to lots of great shopping.

TPA's convention is July 13-17, 2010. No official word from National Office about Convention/the Flooding.

PS - I'll be there if the hotel is still open! I'd also love to get some of our sisters to visit the downtown area and help clean up

OOh! Wouldn't that be a great service project?
