"Very thankful. They did a wonderful job and for people helping other people -- you don't really get that anymore now a days," Acreage resident Bennie Perry said.

"We're all part of the same community, and that was the thing for us. When we heard how bad it was we thought, this is a no brainer,” DJ Jeff Elliott said.
