Lafayette's Cajundome is looking for volunteers to flush more than 200 toilets in the building.
About 70 volunteers are needed to participate in the "Great Cajundome Flushoff" set for 6 p.m. on Dec. 27.
The Cajundome and Convention Center housed as many as 17,000 evacuees of hurricanes Katrina and Rita for 58 days ending Oct. 26. That many people in the facility 24 hours a day took a toll on the arena's plumbing system.
Cajundome Director Greg Davis said the Federal Emergency Management Agency has denied a request to inspect the sewer system with a camera. So, to test the plumbing before hosting an event in January, a minimum of 70 volunteers are needed to spend 15 to 20 minutes flushing toilet paper down 220 or so toilets and testing urinals.
