PERRY, Ga. — Tree crews from around the country were still arriving at the Georgia National Fairgrounds late Sunday in preparation for Hurricane Irma cleanup to the south.

Hundreds of bucket trucks had parked in straight lines and were ready for deployment, likely after the storm has passed on Tuesday.

One crew had used duct tape to send the storm a message: "Irma, here we come."

"It's amazing what they have done in the last 48 hours," said Philip Gentry Jr., agricultural director for the fairgrounds. "It's a mini city over there."

Perry is a city about 30 minutes south of Macon and near the center of Georgia and two hour's drive from the Florida line.

Gentry's team set up a temporary lounge in the goat and sheep lounge for the tree crews, complete with big-screen TVs.
