KATRINA RELIEF EFFORTS 

Wes Boyd took this photo of our “Ticket 98.1 Trailer” that was filled with donations of food, water, and clothes for Hurricane Katrina Victims.  Wes works next door to Dr. Ralf Zapata, a local dentist in Niceville.  Dr. Zapata grew up near northern Biloxi in and still has family, in the town of Woolmarket, MS.

Dr. Zapata offered to accept donations at his dental office via a brief email sent on the morning of Wednesday August 31.  Quickly the donations exceeded the capacity of his office. “The Ticket 98.1” offered its offices as a drop off point and began broadcasting public service announcements.  “The Tickets’” front office was soon filled with donations that we loaded into our utility trailer for transport.
