"If we are prepared, we will have no fear."

Are you prepared? Can you and your family survive a natural disaster? Are you prepared and qualified to help others?

Many Ad Hoc Committees are in place as "Resources" to assist you in adverse situations.

Volunteers are needed in the following areas to ensure that the needs of all members in our community are met should we have an earthquake, a tornado, flood, air or water contamination, utility outages (power, gas, water), etc. ...

Emergency Response Training
Food Preparation and Diet Control
Evacuation and Transportation
Housing and Emergency Shelter
Nursing Assistance and Care for Those with Special Needs - Children, Elderly, Disabled
Ward Building / Physical Facilities Coordination
Construction and Work Coordination - Area Cleanup, etc.
Safety and Security - Buildings and Grounds

Medical Service and Supplies
Psychiatric and Psychological Counseling
Communication - Ham Operators, Short-wave, etc.

Assistance from federal, state and local agencies cannot be expected within the first 72 hours of an emergency ... we must be prepared to care for ourselves.

If you can help during an emergency with either services or equipment - please contact Ellen Reddick at 581-0369, Reddicker@qwest.net, John Gray at 582-0259, JDGray1@comcast.net, or Shannon Howells at 583-4947,

For volunteers with small children needing attention, after parents have satisfied their own family needs, childcare and assistance with those having special needs will be provided.
