Wayde and I were involved in a CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) drill here at Longview Hills several months ago. That drill made us realize how important it is to be prepared to take care ourselves as well as others. We attended the CERT classes, graduated and got our certificates. Here's a picture of our "graduating class."


We had a meeting of all the members of Central Coast CERT (Newport and surrounding areas) at our clubhouse a few weeks ago.

Some of you may be aware that we had a big windstorm here last week, December 2nd and 3rd. Thanks to planning and teamwork the CERT group was able to help a few people here who had problems and give a little comfort and reassurance to many who were listening to the events on their FRS radios. Not bad for a bunch of old guys!
