[GCARC] CHILD ABDUCTION RESONSE TEAM (CART) EXCERCISE

[rkeogh at comcast.net]

To GCARC,

 

The date for the Child Abduction Response Team exercise is Thursday, October
17th.   

 

The time and location TBD.

 

Some examples of our tasks will be:

 

1.	Registering additional volunteers at the Command Center. 
2.	Delivering messages to other team members
3.	Distributing food and water.   
4.	Whatever else they need.   

 

These tasks are not the type we normally look for but, just being a part of
this team is very satisfying and informative.  It's a fantastic learning
opportunity to participate in an Emergency Operation Center (EOC) event.
All the Government Agencies will be there, with their Mobile Communications
Vehicles, that we can tour.  

 

I suggest we all carry an HT,  just in case we need to communicate with one
or more of our GCARC teammates.   If you don't have one, we will loan one to
you.   

 

We have five or six GCARC/ARES members that have signed up for this event,
but we could use a few more, in case a couple of volunteers have to cancel
at the last minute.

 

Please take advantage of this unique opportunity by sending an email to me
at KD2NEC at QSL.NET <mailto:KD2NEC at QSL.NET>  .

 

I will be forwarding more information as soon as I receive it.  

 

Best regards,
