Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Bontrager, Kristi; Gall, Dan Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2008-09-30 2008-09-30 Description An account of the resource Interview with friends and colleagues Kristi Bontrager (38) of Akron, Ohio and Dan Gall (39) of Cleveland, Ohio. Dan (age 39) and Kristi (age 38) discuss evacuating Dan's residence before the floods. They discuss the sense of comradery Dan witnessed as he helped a community in their sandbagging efforts. Hearing about flood of 1993 as Dan was looking for a home. Rented in Mosquito Flats neighborhood. Obviously a flood plain (00:01:21) -- Dan remembers the timeline. Feels like a lucky one from the flood (00:03:28) -- Dan describes events before the flood. Steam carpet cleaned scheduled for Friday morning of flood. Came very close to things being much worse (00:04:00) -- Lead-up to flood, getting release from University to go fill sandbags. Going to old neighborhood to help build retaining wall. Mowing the lawn after spending hours sandbagging - something so trivial (00:06:55) -- Evacuation orders. Getting stuff out of rental house. Wall didn't do much when flood came. Dan describes where the wall was built and where it broke. A mile long wall. Taller than six feet (00:09:33) -- the sandbag filling was strangely festive. Sense of shared purpose - saving their own house or there because people needed help - Dan had already moved but wanted to help (00:12:25) -- Dan's wife also worked sandbagging and trading off childcare. Some people building their own wall (00:14:03) -- Having strangers in the neighborhood - there to help but felt also invasive. Mostly a "real communal thing" (00:15:29) -- Dan's son worries about water damage and flood - five years old. Hadn't had a chance to say goodbye to the house. Afraid that house had literally been "washed away" (00:16:26) -- Rental house had two feet of water in it and is now completely gutted (00:20:21) -- Dan feels bad for the family who own the house - house is their family home. Tried to protect property as much as possible (00:21:12) -- How flood affected Meredith. Neighborhood they moved to was virtually unaffected. Big worry about creeks backing up in new neighborhood (00:23:59) -- Impression of city government and university response to flood. Reasonably good response. At first university tried to keep track of hours but then endorsed any kind of flood relief (00:27:31) -- Number of people volunteering, filling sandbags. "That impressed me" (00:30:00) -- Pulling books out of the library to save. Chaos of book trucks and hand-over-hand passing. Running over guy's toes next to him. A young teenager at bottom of ramp who worked well with Dan. No idea who this woman is (00:31:54) -- Dark humor and teasing - Dan running people over. "It's a lot more pleasant if people laugh" (00:36:12) -- Columbus Junction started flood damage control measures. Realized town was doomed and went to another town to help (00:37:57) -- Plans to stay in Iowa to be close to grandma and grandpa. Always something to worry about (00:39:00) Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource mpeg 00:39:50 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context DDA000500.mp3 https://digital.lib.uiowa.edu/ Language A language of the resource English Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available StoryCorps (Project); University of Iowa.

Black remembers the surreal appearance of the bank half submerged in water. Black also recounts a picture taken of Black and a colleague in the flooded bank that was circulated in news media throughout the world. Vice president at Midwest One Bank in Iowa City region. Already had natural disaster history with Parkersburg's tornado. Lost four buildings in a fourteen day span. In Waterloo, lost one bank. About one half hour to one hour warning to evacuate. No preparation to evacuate properly (00:00:15) -- Trouble with paper deposits, file cabinets, the vault due to flooding. All communication via cellphone (00:03:29) -- Lost the bank Friday the 13th. 250 people working to get the paperwork out before the flood. Also started sandbagging - later suspended sandbagging. It was getting dangerous with the rain and thunder (00:05:29) -- Friday morning the 13th Interview with news station KWWL. Used a canoe to get to the bank. The bank was under construction when the flood hit - about a month from being completed (00:08:03) -- In the 1993 flood the facility did not suffer any damages (00:09:05) 44 inches of water in the facility in 2008 (00:09:05) -- Going to the bank in the canoe, scraped the antennae of a car they floated over (00:11:39) -- Helped other people get to their businesses to retrieve items (00:14:24) - - Customer calls from around the world to make sure that their things were not damaged. They had to extract some of the safety deposit boxes. They learned that the vault is not water tight (00:14:43) -- Have pictures when the vault was being opened. The pictures show the use of an electric/battery powered drill to extract safety deposit boxes (00:18:22) -- Photograph of Black and his colleague drilling into safety deposit boxes while paddling canoe with a shovel. This photograph used by new services around the world (00:20:50) -- The city would not allow Black and employees back into the bank to clean up and assess the damages right away, but eventually they were let back in (00:22:19) -- Friendships were formed. Sense of community. Bank customers and employees sandbagged (00:23:01) -- Lessons learned: evacuate items first, then sandbag; don't trust the experts about when the water will enter the building, there were water level predictions and history (1993 floods) but when new problems arise, such as the collapse of the levee near the railroad tracks, all bets are off (00:24:33) -- The 1993 flood did not damage the bank (00:26:51) -- Remembering the flood water: the smell, the water had oily film (00:27:25) -- Disaster recovery companies. Black didn't trust them but still had to sign a contract with them to clean the bank (00:28:35) -- Black looked at their equipment (tires on trucks) to make sure the company was trustworthy (00:30:00) -- Employees lost property in Parkersburg tornado. It was a humbling experience (00:31:40) -- Bank helped employees affected by tornado by providing them with cars and seven thousand dollars. One woman needed shoes, the bank provided her the shoes. Black recounts story of a large "mountain of a man" who started sobbing because of property loss due to tornado (00:33:00) -- "Everybody had a story" to tell. People asked Black if he would rather have a tornado or a flood. He answered "the flood" because at least you have better warning (00:34:50) -- Had images from inside the Parkersburg bank of the tornado. News services from as far away as Japan were interested in the photos (38:05) -- Problems still unresolved. FEMA helping community but not enough (39:12) -- Flood tough on people. Black has not dealt with FEMA personally, will not take aid from FEMA (00:40:38) -- Most remarkable story: drilling safety deposit boxes and canoe ride inside bank. Lasting friendships formed (00:42:19) -- Flood makes people more human and humble. Nature still more powerful than human beings (43:29) Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource mpeg 00:44:05 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context Black-Barkey.mp3 https://digital.lib.uiowa.edu/ Language A language of the resource English Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University of Iowa.

Title A name given to the resource African American Women in Iowa Collection Description An account of the resource Historian Darlene Clark Hine said: "There is an urgent need to discover and collect more primary source materials pertaining to the lives and experiences of ordinary middle western Black women in both rural and urban communities." Although Hine and her colleagues centered their efforts on African-American women in Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan -- states which traditionally have had more sizable black populations than Iowa -- the history of African-American women in this state is no less important. Indeed, Iowa's African women share a collective history that is both precious and powerful but all too seldom explored. --Kathryn M.

Wedding was going to be on campus at Danforth Chapel (00:00:30) -- Wednesday before flood the wedding was moved to the Marriot Hotel. Couple worried because this hotel is also right on the river. Stephen's parents were sandbagging (00:00:59) -- "It was crazy" - Water all around the Marriot Hotel (00:02:30) -- Couple just bought a house, so wedding would be moved to their backyard. The rehearsal dinner turned into a meeting to plan the wedding all over again (00:03:11) -- Wondering about tables and chairs for wedding. Sonya Hunt helps provide them. Stephen attempts to figure out logistics of still having the wedding that weekend (00:04:16) -- Stephen needs a keyboard to make wedding invitations.

It was overwhelming. Expresses feelings of wanting to help out more for the flood but unable to because of wedding (00:08:15) -- Our officiate, Sarah, lived on Riverside Dr., she was being flooded out of her house, we let her move into our house. At the wedding, all the people at our house was crazy (00:09:30) -- A sense of hopelessness, no control, you take whatever control you can (00:10:24) -- Crazy that Sarah could be flooded out of her house (00:11:01) -- Morning of the wedding, Stephen had to drive across town to print off wedding programs (00:11:30) -- Stephen was sort of glad he was not asked to help move Information Technology equipment from university buildings, but he couldn't help with the wedding taking up his time (00:12:30) -- "How do people get here?"

She "just made it look beautiful." A friend went to Wal-Mart and bought champagne glasses (00:22:30) -- Everyone was trying to help everyone else out (00:23:30) -- Iowa City likes to sell itself as a place where everyone helps each other.

The water was lapping over a bridge (00:26:37) -- Stephen realized the flood was a problem when friends were in town.
