North County CERT offering free classes

FALLBROOK — The North County Community Emergency Response Team (NC CERT) is conducting free classes to train community members how to prepare for any type of disaster, either natural (such as a wildfire) or manmade (a terrorist attack).

Class members will be taught wildfire prevention, fire suppression, basic first aid, light search and rescue and psychological impact of disasters as well as other vital training.

The classes will begin on Tuesday, July 31 (they are held once a week on Tuesdays), for eight weeks and are at Living Waters Church, 2000 Reche Road, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. The disaster simulation drill will be September 22. The class will be sponsored by Killer Pizza from Mars, which will also provide munchies.

Community members interested in attending the classes should contact NC CERT Public Information Officer Millie Martin at (760) 500-7473 or [email protected] or Administrative Section Chief Linda Bannerman at (760) 723-1245 or [email protected].
