City-Wide CERT Drill 10/20/18

We had an excellent City-Wide CERT Drill on Saturday, October 10th, 2018 with 10 Neighborhood CERTs participating and city Fire Engines visiting 9 of them. We had 92 people participating, including 19 hams. Here's the list of participating neighborhoods and our hams. Enjoy.

Gemello Park got the gold star for most participants. Varsity Park did an outstanding job with their first participation in some time. They also submitted an excelled after-action report describing in detail what they did and what they learned. Here's the link: VPK After Action Report.
