Hurricane Michael made landfall near Mexico Beach on the Florida Panhandle as a Category 4 storm early Wednesday afternoon on Oct. 10, 2018. The storm’s heavy rain, high winds, and extreme storm surges caused massive destruction. Hurricane Michael was the first Category 4 storm in recorded history
to make landfall in the northeast Gulf Coast. Join Sequoyah Elementary 3rd graders in gathering items to deliver to Hank’s Furniture Store to aid in the
disaster relief. Together, we can all make a difference. We will collect October 29th- November 2nd at Sequoyah.
