This week and next Tuesday June 10th the Pontilly Association will distribute $50,000 worth of sod free of charge to seniors in the Pontchartrain Part and Gentilly Woods area. One hundred thirty- one seniors fifty-five and older qualified back in April with proofs of age and residency at the Pontilly Disaster Recovery Center. The sod giveaway came through the efforts of King Wells, Senator Derrick Shepherd and J. P. Morrell with funding provided by a grant from the state.The project is meant to assist seniors in recovering and rebuilding their lives after Katrina. "Many more senior residents requested sod assistance." said     Audrey Browder, Project Manager for the Pontilly Association. "We are hoping for additional funding to continue the assistance in the future and we are composing a waiting list. Seniors can sign up at the Pontilly Disaster Recovery Center 3869 Gentilly     Blvd., Suite C Monday to Friday between 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM or call (504) 286-5850. "
