Default RE: Ike Aftermath

Jetero is my club. We got flattened from the pictures I've seen. And we are in debt up to our eyeballs. Fortunately its going be getting cooler soon and the shade isn't as important as it is in the summer months. We might have to go topless for a little while. Iv'e been researching some of the light wieght canvas covered sturctures on the internet. They are typically used in commercial properties like parking garages and such. But I was thinking we might be able to mimic one and have a structure which the canvas cover could be stowed away when a hurricane approaches and would offer little resistance for the wind to damage it. I've found some nice concepts, but really can't tell how feasible it would be to mimic one. The last structure we had was a metal structure with the emphasis on function and little regard for the aesthetic. Turns out it wasn't that structural either. Hopefully we won't make that mistake again.
