Texarkana's 2,330 hotel rooms booked for Gustav evacuees

As Gustav hits the open gulf and bears down on Louisiana, residents from southern Louisiana are beginning to arrive in Texarkana and elsewhere in the Ark-La-Tex. We're headed back to town now to help. Several agencies and organizations are preparing in conjunction for the influx of people, including emergency management and Red Cross officials. The Texarkana Command Post will be at the Southwest Center, and if you're interested in volunteering, please call (870) 773-8811.
