Events

On August 10th, Forreston was hit by a derecho storm that drastically affected members of our community. In an attempt to help support those in need, a long term recovery group called, Forreston Strong 2020, has been created and a donation account has been set up at Forreston State Bank.

We are in the process of assembling a committee that consists of members of the community from all different organizations. This group will work closely with disaster experts from organizations like the Red Cross. To learn more about this group or to donate online, go to https://go.fsbil.com/forrestonstrong2020
