A look back at 2014: The tornado that hit Arkansas on the evening of April 27th gave little warning to the residents of Mayflower and Vilonia. Most people didnt have time to evacuate. All they could do was sit and wait, praying that their homes wouldnt be in the path destined for destruction. Unfortunately, not all of those prayers were answered. The EF4 tornado left behind a 41-mile trail of devastation, killing sixteen people and destroying 400 to 500 homes. Entire fire departments were non-functioning and local first responders were in short supply. Back in California, our ROWW team knew that we could help. Within 48 hours of the tornado, Team ROWW had boots on the ground in Vilonia. We sent a team of five volunteers, from firefighter to construction worker, with one thing in common: expertly skilled with a chainsaw.
