CERT Training

Today Linda & Tom participated in CERT training at Fire Station 2 in Lake Havasu City. The training was put on by the Lake Havasu City CERT Team, which were a part of. Since we are newer to the team, we participated in the exercise.

There were Teams from Bullhead City, Kingman, and Mohave Valley. There were also volunteers from the Lake Havasu City Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association that helped out playing the parts of victims. Our team coordinated all of the scenarios and it went as well as could be expected. We were also treated to a tour of the Lake Havasu City Fire Departments Rehab Rig. This unit is what the CERT team uses when were called out by the Fire Department. We were also treated to an extraction simulation from the Fire Department.

A bar b que lunch was provided also with lots of goodies as well. We also received our Training Certificates from our county training completed in April 2010.
