He saved his family from Hurricane Katrina

Jimmy Kennedy, 13, woke his family as Hurricane Katrina struck his home in D’Iberville, Miss., in the early morning hours. The electricity was out, and floodwaters were surging into the house.

Listen as Jimmy and his mother describe what he did to save his family from the floodwaters of Hurricane Katrina in a true story of Scouts in Action.

   That was a great story! I could picture if that happened to us even though we don’t get hurricanes we can still get floods in Missouri and it could happen to us.
