[QUOTE="PWT36, post: 227777, member: 170"] Packers defensive end Kampman pitches in to help ravaged town Kampman a native of area devastated Sunday by tornado By Andy Nelesen -Green Bay Press-Gazette--May 28, 2008 Green Bay Packers defensive end Aaron Kampman's grandfather is recovering after surgery for injuries suffered in the tornado that struck Parkersburg, Iowa, on Sunday. Claas Kampman's home was destroyed by the tornado. Seven people died in the storm. Aaron Kampman, a native of nearby Kesley, Iowa, is in the storm-ravaged area helping clear debris and clean up damage. He was visiting relatives elsewhere when the storm hit and made his way to the Parkersburg area after learning of the damage, Packers spokesman Adam Woullard said Tuesday. Kampman was a football standout at Aplington-Parkersburg High School, where he played middle linebacker and guard. He is one of four NFL players to come from the school. The high school and more than 350 homes in the area were destroyed. The damage in Parkersburg alone is extensive: 222 homes destroyed in a town of some 1,000 residents, 21 businesses destroyed, and more than 400 homes damaged. "Right now, he's pretty much had a chainsaw running, clearing trees and doing whatever he can do to help," Woullard said. Kampman has told Packers officials it's unclear whether he will return to Green Bay for organized team activities planned later this week. Woullard said anyone interested in making donations to help with damage from the storm can call Lincoln Savings Bank in Aplington, Iowa, at (319) 347-2305 or (800) 588-7551. [/QUOTE]
