Hummelstown, PA flooding Beaver Bend 

The flooding in the Hummelstown/Hershey, Dauphin County, PA area was devastating.  Most of who live in this area were either affected or know someone who was affected.  My famliy owns Beaver Bend Golf Course in Hummelstown and 15 of the 18 golf holes were completely covered by flood waters.  This picture shows water that had risen over a 20+ foot bank.

Wow, I know a lot of people around here were making jokes about how much the media overplayed the hurricane because we got some light showers, but it seems to make done a lot more damage as it moved up. I hope the damage isnt too great.
