Happy Friday,
It is time for our monthly team meeting.
Team
Meeting -- Sat,
Aug, 10th, 9am~11am. Carmel Valley Rec Center/Carmel Valley Community
Park, 3777 Townsgate Drive.
Turn
right at the entrance to the playground. We'll meet outdoor in the grassy area
by the amphitheatre near the bottom of the stairs. Topic is transport
techniques. I have a mannikin, backboards, litter basket. Let's see how well we
can secure/move him around.
Bring
vests, gloves, helmets/hats, sturdy shoes, hydration, and sun protections.
Bring extra tarp/blanket/ropes/sturdy chair if you can lend some to us. This
will be an hands-on exercise.
Invite
to Mid-City picnic/BBQ -- Sat. Aug 17th, 11am. Morley Field in North
Park. They have asked those who'd like to attend to bring something to BBQ and
also a side to share. It'll be nice to interact with other
CERT members at a non-training setting. Please RSVP directly to
Mid-City's Team Leader Gloria Applegate: gapplegate1(at)cox.net.
911
Memorial Stair Climb -- Sat Sept 8th, 7am~2pm (approx.). Every year near
the anniversary of 9/11, CERT is asked to volunteer at the 911 Memorial Stair
Climb event at the Hilton Bayfront next to the Convention Center. Two of the
positions (Field Marshall and Rehab Station) will count as CE, the rest will
count as Volunteer Hours. Lunch is provided.
These
go by very fast so please make sure you sign up through CERT's pages. The two
CE positions require Active DSW card or new grads within first year. The rest
is for everyone else.

Mira
Mesa Street Fair -- Sat,
Sept, 21st. 10am~5pm. I'll need help. Tell me you can help.
If
you're still reading this. Thank you.
One
of our member has recently lost his CERT go-bag due to theft. He's asked me to
let the team know if anyone is selling CERT gear through local classifieds or
craigslists to report it to authorities.
Hope
to see you at the meeting.
