State Fair Park will house hurricane victims

Good. Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis will begin housing evacuees of Hurricane Katrina as of today.

Each room at the youth center has 12 bunk beds, a toilet, a shower and two sinks. The center also has larger restrooms, a dining facility and a recreation room.

Officials plan to work with organizations such as Catholic Charities, which is experienced in relocating people to temporary housing, to eventually move evacuees out of the youth center.

A group from Kaukauna sent buses to pick up evacuees in Houston and could be bringing them to Wisconsin later Monday.
