There are some homes in the bottom lands below Carseland that are in need of help as well. I spoke to a guy at the hospital last night, who was helping but had been injured, and who won't be allowed to return to physically help because the danger of a massive infection being introduced because of everything in the water (he's already on an IV).
If anyone can help there, use google maps to get you from Calgary to Wyndham-Carseland Provincial Park. As soon as you cross the bridge, those instructions will tell you to turn right onto the road into that little park. The park managers could probably use some help too. Instead of turning right, you can also turn left - it says the road is blocked off, but it's only that there's a wash out a little way down the road. There are multiple homes in there could likely use a little help.
If you know how to get to the Speargrass Golf Course, the homes and the park are all in the bottom lands below there.
