We are raising money to help Cathy Pickel get her house cleaned up and her life back a little after the water is done rising.The backyard has already taken on a significant amount of water, over 24” in the last 24 hours. Her basement is now completely flooded and the water is to keep rising until at least Friday.As a staff member of the Reedsburg Area School district for over 30 years, Cathy Pickel has touched many lives. Without a doubt she has at some point helped you or your child get bandaged up after a recess scrape, get to the right bus at transfer, or just been in your classroom or drove your bus.Since Cathy is who she is, she would never ask for help. Our hope here is to raise enough money to help her pay the insurance deductible. Anything over our goal will then be donated to the Red Cross to help further the relief efforts underway in Reedsburg and Sauk County.
