New Orleans, August 24th ~ There will be many events this week to mark the 5th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina throughout New Orleans as we commemorate the thousands of lost lives, and celebrate the spirit of determination as we propel ourselves forward into a brighter future.

You can feel it in the air these days…those ideas for a crisp, clean, let’s tailgate green party. The Saints kick off the season Thursday, September 9th 7.30p against the Vikings at the Dome, which gives you plenty of time to get your tailgate down during pre-season.

St. Bernard Project (SBP) has decided to commemorate the 5th anniversary with special events that will reinvigorate its efforts and renew its commitment to its mission as well as the people of New Orleans. SBP will be focusing its efforts in the Lower 9th Ward by completing 5 homes in 5 days, but will also draw attention to St. Bernard Parish by running 24-hour builds on three local homes. SBP invites, encourages, and urges all supporters of the project and the rebuilding of New Orleans to join us for these events.
