May 2011 Waters are still rising in mid May, in the Mississippi River and Atchafalaya Basins. We will be here to help you with restoration. Not programs have been scheduled at this time.

The rebuilding seminars, workshops and presentations listed here are provided at no charge. Home shows and other events in which we may participate may charge admission.

You can use the rebuilding@agcenter.lsu.edu e-mail address to request a rebuilding presentation for your group anywhere in a Louisiana recovery area. Subjects range from hazard awareness to storm resistant and energy efficient construction and restoration, to preparing financially or elevating an existing home. Program lengths may vary from 15 minutes to 4 hours.

We welcome the opportunity to bring our rebuilding information, displays, and educators - from the LSU AgCenter and Louisiana Sea Grant to your fairs, shows, expos, conferences and other events.
