Confusion hit whenChelsea presented themwith the signs they mademonths before. Eventuallythe confusion turned intorevelation. Daddy wascoming home.

Though the girls wereoverjoyed at seeing theirfather again, Chelsea sus-pects they haven’t forgot-ten their mother’s decep-tion.

“We’ll probably have totake a trip to the waterparksoon,” she said.

For Joseph, that won’tbe an issue. He is lookingforward to many things,including returning towork at ClintonEngineering. But spendingtime with his family ischief among them.

“I’ll definitely throw afew vacations with thefamily in,” Joseph said.

The Clinton welcome-home event was a result ofserendipity. While somesort of activity wasplanned, the fluid nature ofthe soldier’s schedulesmeant nothing could befinalized until the lastminute.

“The army is very secre-tive about when things aregoing to happen,” PaulWilliams, commander ofCamanche VFW Tallman-Lewis Post 9664, said. “Igot a phone call at 9 a.m.with the details.”

Williams said his VFWpost has adopted the localNational Guard Unit andhelps plan events for sol-diers and their families.They had a Christmasparty for the families lastyear, and are planning amore formal welcomehome party in September.

Williams said it isimportant to remember thefamilies of deployed sol-diers, as they often providethe will for one to serve.

“They worry moreabout their family backhome than they do aboutcombat situations,” hesaid. “I’m just proud theseguys are back and proudthey stepped up to defendAmerica.”

Williams added onemore thought, somethinghe tries to say to every sol-dier.

“Thank you.”

Relief coordinator forMystery Church, RodneyRambo, told McClung thatCEFC volunteers wouldmake up one crew andwould work on one site at atime. However, sites canchange hour-to-hour andday-to-day as there is need.

“Flexibility is a 100 per-cent requirement,”McClung said following aphone conversation withRambo last Tuesday. “Hetold me what tools that weneed to bring. Must-needsare sledge hammers, wheelbarrows, chainsaws, handsaws, and any type of clean-up tool that you can thinkof, like brooms, mops,rakes, all that. And he saidthere are needs for sledgehammers, for chainsawsand handsaws that theywould like for us to donate.I said we can do that.”

In the weeks prior to thetrip, members of CEFCgave personal funds to puttoward the purchase of toolsthat could be given toMystery Church.

“Hopefully we can givemoney to the churchbecause I’m sure they havea benevolence fund and 100percent goes back to thecommunity,” said McClung

of any funds remaining afterthe purchase of supplies.

In addition, the churchreceived equipment dona-tions from area businesses.

“We had two contractorsin the Quad Cities donatesafety equipment, gloves,safety glasses, coolers foraround the neck, sweatbands, things of thatnature,” Ketelsen said.

According to informationreleased by Mystery

Church, approximately2,000 buildings, whichequals 25 percent of the city,were destroyed and an addi-tional 6,000 buildings weredamaged. The quantity ofdebris needing to beremoved is “equivalent to afootball field stacked 200feet higher than the EmpireState Building,” estimatesMystery Church.

CEFC volunteers are alsoanticipating extreme work-ing conditions, as the fore-cast for the week is display-ing temperatures in the 100-degree range with an exces-sive heat warning.

“We’re all going to bevery careful, making sure

we’re staying very hydrat-ed, staying out of the sun asbest we can, or (using) sun-screen, and that type ofthing,” Reed said. “We havemembers of the group whodo have some medical train-ing who will be assisting inthat.”

The group will return toClinton on Saturday andwill host a debriefing at the9:30 a.m. church serviceSunday, Aug. 7, at CEFC.

“I’m going to have (vol-unteers) give a re-cap...withvideo and photos,”McClung said. “We’ll shareat that time with the churchour experiences from theJoplin trip.”
