Flood recovery benefit

From WCLO

WCLO's Stan Stricker reports on upcoming flood relief fund raiser
Lake Koshkonong area businesses are working together on flood recovery efforts.

Buckhorn Supper Club co-owner Dawn Pope tells WCLO's Stan Milam show funds are being raised to restore the area. Pope says recovery efforts aren't confined to Newville or Lake Koshkonong. She says they're trying to help clean up debris from Indianford to Blackhawk Island. Pope knows first hand the cost of the flood to homes and businesses. Her business was closed for three weeks because of more than two feet of standing water in the road.

A benefit is planned this Saturday at Fins Bar and Grill in Newville.
