American Red Cross Training

E-mail Print

This FREE training will provide participants with an overview of the activities and responsibilities of partner agency shelter workers in a shelter operation.  Participants will learn what services are involved in operating a shelter, the roles and responsibilities of each shelter operation position, be able to describe important shelter resident information, and know what shelter supplies are necessary and how those supplies can be obtained.

During the month of September, in keeping with the theme of “National Preparedness Month”, we are adding a personal preparedness component to the Partner Shelter Training. 

Participants will learn more about the three simple actions they can take to be 'Red Cross Ready':

1) get a kit

2) make a plan

3) be informed

Participants will also learn what a disaster supplies kit is and how to assemble one; and how the American Red Cross supports preparedness and what preparedness opportunities are available to them at local chapters.

The date of the training is Saturday, September 18th. 

A head count is needed so that space can be reserved.  If interested please call Lonny Ricketts and leave a message at 978-544-2066 or email at .

 

Volunteers Needed!

There are several openings on Town Boards and Committees, including the Cemetery Commission, Recreation Committee, Open Space Committee and others. Please contact the Selectboard if you are interested in serving.
