Moutain Mule Packers Excited for Mules to Arrives

Mike and Michele Toberer of Mountain Mule Packers in Mount Ulla, NC but more specifically in Harmony, NC received two Kawasaki UTV side-by-sides Mules, 16 pallets of non-perishable foods, almost 2000 lbs. of dry calico beans, clothing, blankets, work gloves, and toilet paper from the Norfolk warehouse in Nebraska. Also, included was a box of handmade Barbie doll clothing with a new Barbie. The one-of-kind Barbie clothes were made by a woman in Norfolk who wanted to share them with a young girl in North Carolina who may have lost her toys during the storm. The UTV mules will be used to carry in survival provisions to villages in North Carolina and Tennessee in the Smokey Mountains area that are impossible to get to by vehicle.
