Two volunteers from the local chapter of the Red Cross traveled over the weekend from Poughkeepsie to South Carolina in an Emergency Response Vehicle, according to Time Warner Cable News, which reported that about 20 local Red Cross volunteers were already aiding cleanup efforts in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.
The Mid-Hudson Valley Emergency Response Vehicle, one of about 95 such trucks providing aid to those affected by the storm, is expected to remain in the region for about two weeks, according to Time Warner Cable News.
