Amid the wrecks, fire calls, and tree chopping Sunday, first responders in Habersham County got to enjoy a free hot meal.
Clarkesville-based Wolf Creek BBQ, owned by Mike Roberson, provided lunch for the county’s road crews, law enforcement, fire, EMS, and 911 dispatchers.
The hot lunch gave crews a chance to refuel after a long morning of clearing roads and answering calls. Around 5 a.m. Sunday, the county reported that trees were down on 90% of the county’s roads.
Habersham County Emergency Services responded to several wrecks and fire calls: One wreck involved a snowplow that rolled over on Old Cleveland Road in Cornelia. There were numerous reports of trees down on powerlines and a tree fell on the Demorest police station. There were no reports of any serious injuries.
