TEAM MEETING - FEBRUARY 28
One new team
member was introduced at the February 28th team meeting. Two residents
currently in training were also introduced.
The up coming March 9th in house drill was discussed as was storage of equipment. One team 2-way radio was rendered un serviceable by storing it in a zip lock bag in a humid garage. Radios should be stored without batteries in them inside the home to keep them dry and serviceable.
Our team will assemble in the Town Center at 8:00 A.M. on March 9th to participate in our annual drill.
