FEMA at Menards

Federal emergency officials will set up shop at hardware stores, including the Menards in Janesville, and county fairs this weekend to give homeowners advice.

Flood mitigation experts from the Federal Emergency Management Agency will be at Menards stores in Janesville, Beaver Dam and La Crosse all day Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

They’ll also be at Lowe’s in Milwaukee, Doerre Hardware Hank in Spring Green and Home Depot in Wauwatosa those three days and at fairs in Jefferson, Marquette and Sauk counties on Saturday and Sunday.

They’ll answer questions about flood repairs, applying for federal aid and anything else on people’s minds.
