Message from LA Restaurant Association
The Louisiana Restaurant Association (LRA) began implementing its Hurricane Evacuation Plan earlier this week, in the event an evacuation is called for the Metro New Orleans area. All measures have been taken to ensure that our servers, archives, and assets are secured. In addition, our website hosting will switch over to the secondary hosting datacenter in New York.
The LRA Crisis Management Team will evacuate to the Mississippi Hospitality & Restaurant Association’s offices in Jackson, MS. You should be able to reach us through our regular phone number at (800) 256-4572. If you are not able to reach us on that number, the phone number for the Mississippi Hospitality & Restaurant Association’s offices in Jackson is (601) 420-4210.
Should an evacuation take place, we will be updating our website at www.LRA.org with all the resources you will need to contact us. We have established our evacuation plans to minimize any disruption in service for LRA members.
