Volunteers helping Saratoga Springs community after mudslides

Wednesday, September 5th, 2012 Property

Volunteers are helping residents of a Saratoga Springs neighborhood clean up on Monday. Floods and mudslides tore through the houses Saturday night. Basements filled with water, walls destroyed and belongings carried away. Residents of more than 20 homes in the Jacobs Ranch subdivision are now cleaning up the mess. The Saratoga Springs Police Department established a disaster relief fund for the victims. They are asking for time and financial donations as well as goods such as clothing, food, and equipment. “The mud came on just quick. You could see it coming. It just came down and there was nothing you could do,” said Mike Ruoho, a flood victim.
